[Insight-users] Saving a Meta raw image into individual 2d images

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Zein,

You may want to look at the FAQ entry:
http://www . itk . org/cgi-bin/InsightFAQ/InsightFAQ?req=show&file=faq01 . 007 . htp

Probably your best options are:

  1) PNG
  2) 2D MetaImage
  3) 2D Analyze

-----

PGM format is not supported.

BMP format is not supported
     (this is a pretty bad format for medical images,
      but... code was posted recently to the list
      regarding how to write ITK slices in BMP)
http://www . itk . org/pipermail/insight-users/2003-June/003952 . html

-----

In order to save individual slices you could use
the ExtractImageFilter,
http://www . itk . org/Insight/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1ExtractImageFilter . html
and define the slice using the ExtractRegion.

Then pass the output slice to a 2D ImageFileWriter,
and put the whole inside a loop that runs over all
the slices of your volume.




Regards,


    Luis
