ExportImageAsSlices¶

MacroModule¶

genre	`File`
author	`MeVis Medical Solutions AG`
package	`MeVisLab/Standard`
definition	FileHandling.def
see also	`ImageSave`, `DicomTool`
keywords	`save`, `export`, `image`, `stack`, `png`, `jpg`, `jpeg`, `bmp`

Purpose¶

The module ExportImageAsSlices exports a 3D (or 4D/5D) image as a stack of 2D slices with automatic indexing. It supports PNG, JPG, BMP, and PNM format and input images with 1 or 3 colors and any scalar data type.

Usage¶

Enter a filename in Filename. The filename will automatically be augmented with the required indexing.

Input Fields¶

input0¶

name: input0, type: Image¶: Connect the image to export here.

Parameter Fields¶

Field Index¶

`Colors`: `Integer`	`T`: `Integer`
`dimensionSeparator`: `String`	`Type`: `String`
`Export`: `Trigger`	`U`: `Integer`
`File type supported`: `Bool`	`Z`: `Integer`
`Filename`: `String`
`Input image supported`: `Bool`
`progress`: `Float`
`Status`: `String`

Visible Fields¶

Filename¶

name: targetFileName, type: String¶

The target filename. It must end with “.png”, “.jpg”, “.bmp”, or “.pnm”.

This filename will automatically augmented with the required indexing; this way, the actual filename will only be used if you provide a 2D image.

Status¶

name: status, type: String, persistent: no¶

Colors¶

name: cSize, type: Integer, persistent: no¶: Sets the number of color channels in the input image.

Z¶

name: zSize, type: Integer, persistent: no¶: Sets the number of slices in the z-dimension.

T¶

name: tSize, type: Integer, persistent: no¶: Sets the number of time points in the t-dimension.

U¶

name: uSize, type: Integer, persistent: no¶: Sets the extent of the u-dimension.

Type¶

name: dataType, type: String, persistent: no¶

Sets the voxel data type of the image.

Only “unsigned int8” is passed through unchanged, everything else is scaled to the range 0-255.

File type supported¶

name: ready, type: Bool, persistent: no¶: Shows whether a suitable file name has been entered.

Input image supported¶

name: supported, type: Bool, persistent: no¶: Shows whether a compatible input image is connected to the module.

Export¶

name: export, type: Trigger¶: When pressed, the export step is performed.

Hidden Fields¶

dimensionSeparator¶

name: dimensionSeparator, type: String, default: -¶: Sets a string that will be used to separate the indexing if more than one dimension needs to be indexed.

progress¶

name: progress, type: Float, persistent: no¶
