[Insight-users] Can't use 16-bit?

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Hello,

We have a python example for this filter it should be a good starting point:

http://www.itk.org/SimpleITKDoxygen/html/N4BiasFieldCorrection_8py-example.html

To change the image type you simply need to use the CastImageFilter.

Also if you want to look at what image types a filter works with look at the PixelIDTypeList defined for that filter in the Doxygen:

http://www.itk.org/SimpleITKDoxygen/html/classitk_1_1simple_1_1N4BiasFieldCorrectionImageFilter.html#a56b78dd41836a5fce343fef10a65d848

I have had quite a few discussions recently, about how to improve this error message. What would you have liked to see?

I am fairly sure that it can handle 16-bit images normally because a number of people have used it in their publications that use BRATS data.  I don’t know that they were using the Java version though.  I haven’t tried converting it to another data type yet because…well I don’t know how.  I will look into that, but I figure it is something else that I am doing wrong.
