fMROI: a simple and adaptable toolbox for easy region-of-interest creation

This study introduces fMROI, an open-source software designed for creating regions-of-interest (ROIs) and visualizing magnetic resonance imaging data. fMROI offers a user-friendly graphical interface that simplifies the creation of complex ROIs. It is compatible with various operating systems and enables the integration of user-specified algorithms. Comparative analysis against popular neuroimaging software demonstrates the feasibility, applicability, and ease of use of fMROI. Notably, fMROIs interactive graphical interface with a real-time viewer allows users to identify inconsistencies and design more accurate ROIs, saving significant time by avoiding errors before storing ROIs as NIfTI files. Additionally, fMROI supports automation through command-line accessibility, making it ideal for large-scale analyses. As an open-source platform, fMROI provides a valuable resource for researchers in the neuroimaging community, facilitating efficient ROI creation and streamlining neuroimage analysis.
