Detailed Description
template<typename STIRImageType = DiscretisedDensity<3, float>>
class stir::ITKImageInputFileFormat< STIRImageType >
Class for reading images using ITK.
ITK (http://www.itk.org) has its own registry of file formats, so the current class provides an interface to that code. We use ITK for reading, and then translate the ITK data and meta-info to STIR.
ITK can read many file formats, see http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK/File_Formats for some info.
This STIR class has special handling for DICOM images. For many modalities, DICOM stores each slice in a different file. Normally, ITK reads only a single DICOM file, and hence a single slice. As this is not useful for STIR, we use itk::GDCMSeriesFileNames to find other slices belonging to the same series/time frame/gate as the input filename to read_from_file().
- Warning
- This translation currently ignores orientation and direction (e.g. of slice order).
