threadSafeTempFile

This function is a wrapper around <code><a href="/link/tempfile?package=tractor.base&version=3.4.2" data-mini-rdoc="tractor.base::tempfile">tempfile</a></code>, which creates
temporary file names whose path contains the process ID of the calling
process. This avoids clashes between threads created by functions such as
<code>mclapply</code> (in the ``parallel'' package), which can easily occur with
the standard <code><a href="/link/tempfile?package=tractor.base&version=3.4.2" data-mini-rdoc="tractor.base::tempfile">tempfile</a></code> function.

Functions for working with magnetic resonance images. Reading and
writing of popular file formats (DICOM, Analyze, NIfTI-1, NIfTI-2, MGH);
interactive and non-interactive visualisation; flexible image manipulation;
metadata and sparse image handling.
