| Definitions |
An anatomical space is a combination of a mathematical space with an anatomical space such that there is a defined mapping between the anatomical axes and the mathematical axes. A mathematical coordinate space by itself is NOT an anatomical space because it admits all possible orientations and reflections of the anatomical space, so for example a brain can be rotated in all directions and still be in that mathematical coordinate space. Such spaces are called unoriented spaces and are a source of significant pain when dealing with anatomical datasets. |

| editor note |
To avoid problems like those encountered by nifti an anatomical reference space MUST define an anatomical axis alignment vector which states, for example, [X, Y, Z] -> [R, A, D] (left hand rule). This immediately indicates the three annotations required on any unoriented dataset as opposed to someone trying to apply the anatomical directions directly to the unoriented dataset |
