232232Here the scanner axes are reordered and flipped so that the first axis is the

237237in the scanner, then the first (X) axis of the reference system would be
238238scanner-floor/ceiling, but reversed so that positive values are towards the
239239floor. This axis goes from left to right in the subject, with positive values
240240to the right. The second (Y) axis would be scanner-left/right
