          The default post-processing methods implemented by 
						magnetic resonance hardware manufacturers can often be 
						proprietary closed-box algorithms, making it difficult 
						to process data from unconventionally-acquired 
						sequences. By reading and processing scan data from 
						Siemens and Varian sequences directly into MATLAB, a 
						robust and flexible post-processing utility has been 
						created. The program can read, plot and quantify data 
						from a variety of sequences and resolve issues 
						associated with conventionally processing data from 
						advanced sequences like parallel diagonals from 
						phased-array coil combination. The new program can 
						facilitate the development of new advanced or 
						unconventional sequences.
