A lightweight Python library for reading & writing BrainVoyager file formats.

bvbabel is a spiritual successor of Jochen Weber's Neuroelf's xff function, Thomas Emmerling's unmerged Nibabel pull request, and Hester Breman's earlier efforts around 2005. I have been inspired by these earlier projects, but ended up implementing from scratch based on BrainVoyager file formats documentation.
