function proc_pipel = tbx_scfg_hmri_proc_pipeline
% Configuration file for the pipeline part of the processing modules of
% the "histological MRI" (hMRI) toolbox.
% -> Provides standard processign pipelines.
% 
% For simplicity, 2 standard pipelines are also set up:
% - US+Smooth -> applies US, warps into MNI, then smoothes
%               (weighted-average)
% - US+Dartel+Smooth -> applies US, builds Dartel template and warps into
%                       MNI, then smoothes (weighted-average)
% Most of the parameters are therefore pre-defined and hardcoded!
% For more flexibility, you ought to use the individual modules and build
% your own pipeline.
