None.

OPTIONAL-FLAGGED ARGUMENTS

ArgumentExplanation
-i <low thresh> <hi thresh>only consider thicknesses in the specified range.
-l <label file>limit calculations to specified label
-t <thickness file>use specified file for computing thickness statistics
-a <annotation file>compute properties for each label in the annotation file separately
-btabular output
-f <tablefile>table output to tablefile (different format than -b). Must use -a or -l options to spec input.
-log <logfile>Write stats to file named log
-nsmooth <#>Smooth thicknessmap # of iterations before using it
