	The ANALYZE package was developed at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota
for medical image manipulation.  It is current a standard format, one which we use in our
PET imaging suite, esp. for neural scans.  The format has separate header and image
files, and the ANALYZE software (the version we use) runs off of Sunview tools (yeah,
pretty archaic).  It is a fairly good package, but not a hard-core image processing engine,
mostly manipulation and ROI processing and visualization; also, it's closed ended, 
unless you wait for Mayo Clinic to come out with new improved versions!  I'm not sure 
what the latest upgrades offer..

The version we are using:	ANALYZE 1.2
