Is the definition of ITK orientation code below correct?
"The orientation code maps the voxel coordinate system I (column) J
(row) K (slice) to patient's right-handed coordinate system X Y Z.
Minor rank notation is used, characters R, L, A, P, I, S identify
'from' direction.
RAI means:
X: Right to left
Y: Anterior to posterior
Z: Inferior to superior
Note: sometimes major rank notation ('to') is used, the same
coordinate system may be called DICOM LPS or Nrrd
left-posterior-superior (right to Left, anterior to Posterior,
inferior to Superior)."
