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)
