Data visualization#

There are different options to visualize images.

  • For quick click and view Mango is a nice option.

  • For surface-based analyses Freesurfer’s Freeview is very capable.

  • For publication quality (programatically reproducible) images you’ll likely use nilearn.plotting or fsleyes.
