SeqEyes — Interactive Pulseq MRI Sequence Viewer for Python

SeqEyes is a lightweight Python package that provides interactive visualization of Pulseq text (.seq) and binary (.bseq) MRI sequences in Jupyter notebooks. It works as a drop‑in replacement for pypulseq.Sequence.plot(), rendering an interactive viewer directly in Jupyter notebook cell output — just like Plotly.

Features

  • 🎛️ Interactive waveform viewer — zoom, pan, per‑channel amplitude zoom
  • 📍 Tooltip with block details (RF amplitude, gradient strength, ADC params)
  • 🗺️ 3D k‑space trajectory viewer — rotate, zoom, depth‑sorted rendering
  • 🎨 8 colour themes — system, light, dark, dracula, nord, and more
  • 📏 Unit conversion — time (s / ms / µs), gradient (Hz/m / mT/m / G/cm)
  • 📐 Minimap with TR/TE overlay and viewport indicator
  • 💾 Export to standalone HTML — shareable, no Python needed
  • 🔌 Drop‑in pypulseq integration — seq.plot() just works

Installation

pip install seqeyes-python

For pypulseq integration:

pip install seqeyes-python[pypulseq]

Quick Start

import seqeyes

# Enable SeqEyes (once per session) — seq.plot() is now interactive
seqeyes.set(theme="dark", time_disp="ms")

# Build your sequence with pypulseq as usual
seq.plot()                          # interactive viewer in Jupyter
seq.plot(show_blocks=True)          # per‑call overrides
seq.plot(time_range=(0, 0.05))      # zoom to first 50 ms

# Restore matplotlib at any time
seqeyes.reset()

In a plain .py script (no Jupyter), seq.plot() opens the viewer in a desktop pop‑up window (requires pywebview) or falls back to your default browser.

Using without pypulseq

from seqeyes import SeqEyesViewer

with open('my_sequence.seq') as f:
    viewer = SeqEyesViewer(f.read(), theme="dark")

viewer  # renders inline in Jupyter

Open either supported file format directly:

from seqeyes import SeqEyesViewer

SeqEyesViewer.from_file("my_sequence.seq", theme="dark")
SeqEyesViewer.from_file("my_sequence.bseq", theme="dark")

API Reference

Function Description
seqeyes.set(**kwargs) Enable SeqEyes and set global defaults (theme, show_blocks, time_disp, grad_disp, time_range)
seqeyes.reset() Restore matplotlib seq.plot() and clear all defaults
SeqEyesViewer(source, ...) Low-level viewer for raw .seq text or .bseq bytes
SeqEyesViewer.from_file(path, ...) Open a local .seq or .bseq file without pypulseq

Viewer Controls

Action How
Zoom Scroll wheel
Pan Click + drag
Amplitude zoom (per channel) Ctrl + scroll wheel
Tooltip Hover over waveform
Toggle channels Click legend labels
K‑Space viewer Click "K‑Space" button
Rotate k‑space Click + drag in panel
Minimap navigation Click on minimap strip
Open another file 📂 Open button

Requirements

  • Python ≥ 3.9
  • numpy ≥ 1.21
  • pypulseq ≥ 1.4 (optional, for seq.plot() integration)
  • pywebview ≥ 5 (optional, for native desktop pop‑up windows)
