I have several .mrb files which contain images and segmentation annotations. I currently manually open the .mrb file in 3D slicer and then go to “Data” → “Export visible segments to binary labelmap” → “Save” and then select “Tiff” for the export format for the segmentations. However since there are so many .mrb files, I was wondering if there is an automatic way of exporting all the data quicker.

Thanks

You can write a Python script to automate this. Probably all the necessary steps are described in the [script repository](https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developer_guide/script_repository.html) but if there is anything specific that you cannot find then you can ask here.
