Add Nifti volume¶

Import a custom Nifti volume that can be then used in the cross-section or volume tab. To this end, the python package nibabel must be installed and custom Nifti volume must be downloaded. When the volume is loaded into the GUI, it’s accessible from the Brain/Cross-sections and Brain/Volume tab.

This script use a custom nifti volume downloadable at : https://brainder.org/download/flair/
