NIfTI

NIfTI (Neuroimaging Informatics Technology Initiative) is a file format used to store brain imaging data, such as MRI scans. It organizes 3D or 4D images in a standardized way, making it easier for researchers and medical professionals to share, analyze, and visualize brain images across different software platforms. Think of it as a digital container that holds detailed, high-quality pictures of the brain, along with information about location, orientation, and other metadata, facilitating accurate analysis and collaboration in neuroscience and medical imaging.
