Description

This PR addresses #83 and #84. Main changes include:

In process_data.sh:

To to this, I added the saving of the centerline coordinates since it is more precise than in the image of centerline_extrapolated --> https://github.com/spinalcordtoolbox/spinalcordtoolbox/pull/3478/commits/79752f834c9cb54b6a8b244068f1556a61dd8f75

I should maybe add in the ylabelof figure a) that CSA is measured at 60mm from PMJ

sandrinebedard commented 3 years ago

I just have a question: what is the distance from the PMJ and how did you choose it?

Currently it is 60 mm!

Now that I have the distance between PMJ and C2-C3 disc, the mean is at 63 mm, but those results don't include yet the new R-L adjustment of PMJ label, so it should be arround that! I want to compute PMJ at the mean distance from C2-C3 disc
