Summary
Imaging
Debian Med image processing and visualization packages

This metapackage will install Debian packages which might be useful in medical image processing and visualization.

On one hand, it installs several packages supporting various image file formats and image management, like DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) which is the de-facto standard for medical image management, and NIFTI. On the other hand, it provides a variety of software packages that can be used for visualization and for image processing - either from a graphical user interface, the command line, or implemented in workflows.

Description

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

Advanced Normalization Tools (ANTS) is an ITK-based suite of normalization, segmentation and template-building tools for quantitative morphometric analysis. Many of the ANTS registration tools are diffeomorphic, but deformation (elastic and BSpline) transformations are available. Unique components of ANTS include multivariate similarity metrics, landmark guidance, the ability to use label images to guide the mapping and both greedy and space-time optimal implementations of diffeomorphisms. The symmetric normalization (SyN) strategy is a part of the ANTS toolkit as is directly manipulated free form deformation (DMFFD).

This package provides environment-modules configuration. Use 'module load ants' to make all cmdline tools available in your shell.

This software allows for creating, viewing and manipulating surface reconstructions of the cerebral and cerebellar cortex, viewing volumes and for displaying experimental data on the surfaces and volumes. While Caret is primarily a GUI application with 'caret_command' there is also a versatile command line tool, that allows access to a substantial proportion of Caret's functionality.

Caret can download and use stereotaxic atlases (human, monkey, mouse and rat) from an open online database.

Some functionality of Caret is only available when additional data files, provided by the caret-data package, are available. This includes:

  • Map volumes to surface via PALS atlas
  • Multi-resolution morphing
  • Projection of foci via PALS atlas
  • Surface-based registration
  • Surface flattening

Currently the caret-data package is only available from the NeuroDebian repository. Please see http://neuro.debian.net for more information.

The dinifti program converts MRI images stored in DICOM format to NIfTI format. The NIfTI format is thought to be the new standard image format for medical imaging and can be used with for example with FSL, AFNI, SPM, Caret or Freesurfer.

dinifti converts single files, but also supports fully automatic batch conversions of complete dicomdirs. Additionally, converted NIfTI files can be properly named, using image series information from the DICOM files.

Gwyddion is a modular program for Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) data visualization and analysis. It is primarily intended for analysis of height field data obtained by microscopy techniques like

  • Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM),
  • Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM),
  • Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM),
  • Near-field Scanning Optical Microscopy (SNOM or NSOM) and others. However, it can be used for arbitrary height field and image analysis.

This package contains the main application and its modules. It also contains a GNOME (and Xfce) thumbnailer which creates previews for all file types known to Gwyddion.

ImageVis3D is a volume rendering application specifically designed to render large data. This is achieved by splitting the dataset into multiple levels of detail (LoD), with each level itself decomposed into multiple bricks (atomic rendering primitive). Interaction occurs at the coarsest LoD, which can be rendered instantaneously on almost all modern systems. After a configurable delay, ImageVis3D will successively render finer levels of detail, until the data are visible at their native resolution.

Development of ImageVis3D is sponsored by the NIH/NCRR Center for Integrative Biomedical Computing (CIBC), and the DOE Visualization And Analytics Center for Enabling Technologies (VACET).

The ISMRMRD format combines a mix of flexible data structures (XML header) and fixed structures (equivalent to C-structs) to represent MRI data.

In addition, the ISMRMRD format also specifies an image header for storing reconstructed images and the accompanying C++ library provides a convenient way of writing such images into HDF5 files along with generic arrays for storing less well defined data structures, e.g. coil sensitivity maps or other calibration data.

This package provides the command-line tools.

KiNG (Kinemage, Next Generation) is an interactive system for three-dimensional vector graphics. It supports a set of graphics primitives that make it suitable for many types of graphs, plots, and other illustrations; although its first use was to display macromolecular structures for biophysical research. KiNG builds on Mage, JavaMage, and the "kinemage" (kinetic image) concept to deliver a full-featured Java application with a user-friendly interface and integrated editing features. The KiNG jar file can be used within a web page as a Java applet or Java object to promote easy access to kinemages or coordinate files from a web browser.

This package contains tools to manipulate MINC files.

The Minc file format is a highly flexible medical image file format built on top of the NetCDF generalized data format. The format is simple, self-describing, extensible, portable and N-dimensional, with programming interfaces for both low-level data access and high-level volume manipulation. On top of the libraries is a suite of generic image-file manipulation tools. The format, libraries and tools are designed for use in a medical-imaging research environment: they are simple and powerful and make no attempt to provide a pretty interface to users.

This is a GUI-based visualization and analysis tool for (functional) magnetic resonance imaging. MRIcron can be used to create 2D or 3D renderings of statistical overlay maps on brain anatomy images. Moreover, it aids drawing anatomical regions-of-interest (ROI), or lesion mapping, as well as basic analysis of functional timeseries (e.g. creating plots of peristimulus signal-change).

In addition to 'mricron', this package also provides 'dcm2nii' that supports converting DICOM and PAR/REC images into the NIfTI format, and 'npm' for non-parametric data analysis.

OpenSlide is a C library that provides a simple interface to read whole-slide images also known as virtual slides.

Whole-slide images, also known as virtual slides, are large, high resolution images used in digital pathology. Reading these images using standard image tools or libraries is a challenge because these tools are typically designed for images that can comfortably be uncompressed into RAM or a swap file. Whole-slide images routinely exceed RAM sizes, often occupying tens of gigabytes when uncompressed. Additionally, whole-slide images are typically multi-resolution, and only a small amount of image data might be needed at a particular resolution.

This library currently supports:

  • Aperio (.svs, .tif)
  • Hamamatsu (.vms, .vmu, .ndpi)
  • Leica (.scn)
  • MIRAX (.mrxs)
  • Sakura (.svslide)
  • Trestle (.tif)
  • Generic tiled TIFF (.tif)

This package contains command line tools for file manipulation.

Orthanc aims at providing a simple, yet powerful DICOM server for medical imaging. Orthanc can turn any computer running Windows or Linux into a Vendor Neutral Archive (in other words, a mini-PACS system). Its architecture is lightweight, meaning that no complex database administration is required, nor the installation of third-party dependencies.

What makes Orthanc unique is the fact that it provides a RESTful API. Thanks to this major feature, it is possible to drive Orthanc from any computer language. The DICOM tags of the stored medical images can be downloaded in the JSON file format. Furthermore, standard PNG images can be generated on-the-fly from the DICOM instances by Orthanc.

Orthanc lets its users focus on the content of the DICOM files, hiding the complexity of the DICOM format and of the DICOM protocol.

Teem is a coordinated group of libraries for representing, processing, and visualizing scientific raster data. Teem includes command-line tools that permit the library functions to be quickly applied to files and streams, without having to write any code. The most important and useful libraries in Teem are:

  • Nrrd (and the unu command-line tool on top of it) supports a range of operations for transforming N-dimensional raster data (resample, crop, slice, project, histogram, etc.), as well as the NRRD file format for storing arrays and their meta-information.
  • Gage: fast convolution-based measurements at arbitrary point locations in volume datasets (scalar, vector, tensor, etc.)
  • Mite: a multi-threaded ray-casting volume render with transfer functions based on any quantity Gage can measure
  • Ten: for estimating, processing, and visualizing diffusion tensor fields, including fiber tractography methods.

This package contains some simple command-line tools which provide fast and easy access to the functionality in the various libraries.

Image and meta-data can be read from TIFF, BigTIFF, OME-TIFF, STK, LSM, NIH, ImageJ, MicroManager, FluoView, SEQ and GEL files.

Only a subset of the TIFF specification is supported, mainly uncompressed and losslessly compressed 2**(0 to 6) bit integer, 16, 32 and 64-bit float, grayscale and RGB(A) images, which are commonly used in bio-scientific imaging. Specifically, reading JPEG/CCITT compressed image data or EXIF/IPTC/GPS/XMP meta-data is not implemented. Only primary info records are read for STK, FluoView, MicroManager, and NIH image formats.

TIFF, the Tagged Image File Format, is under the control of Adobe Systems. BigTIFF allows for files greater than 4 GB. STK, LSM, FluoView, SEQ, GEL, and OME-TIFF, are custom extensions defined by MetaMorph, Carl Zeiss MicroImaging, Olympus, Media Cybernetics, Molecular Dynamics, and the Open Microscopy Environment consortium respectively.

This project stands for Medical Image Conversion. Released under the (L)GPL, it comes with the full C-source code of the library, a flexible command line utility and a neat graphical front-end using the GTK+ toolkit. The currently supported formats are: Acr/Nema 2.0, Analyze (SPM), DICOM 3.0, InterFile 3.3 and PNG.

The program also allows one to read unsupported files without compression, to print pixel values or to extract/reorder specified images. It is possible to retrieve the raw binary/ascii image arrays or to write PNG for desktop applications.

This is the program version for X based on GTK+. Processes only one file at a time.

A software toolkit for computational morphometry of biomedical images, CMTK comprises a set of command line tools and a back-end general-purpose library for processing and I/O.

The command line tools primarily provide the following functionality: registration (affine and nonrigid; single and multi-channel; pairwise and groupwise), image correction (MR bias field estimation; interleaved image artifact correction), processing (filters; combination of segmentations via voting and STAPLE; shape-based averaging), statistics (t-tests; general linear regression).

ImageMagick is a software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (over 100) including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves. All manipulations can be achieved through shell commands as well as through an X11 graphical interface (display).

This package include links to channel depth specific binaries and manual pages.

This is a dummy package. You can safely purge or remove it.

Imview is an application which

  • Displays a large number of image formats.
  • Displays 2D or 3D (as slices) images with a very good zoom and pan feature.
  • Works with multi-spectral, time series or multi-page documents (e.g.: Satellite images, TIFF stacks, animated GIFs and heterogeneous multi-component files).
  • Displays all pixel types (1-bit to 64-bit data, integer or floating point).
  • Arbitrary 1-D profile of 2-D images (or of 2-D slices of 3-D images) can be displayed.
  • Has support for arbitrary colourmaps for all pixel types (i.e.: false colour display).
  • Has standard image manipulation facilities (brightness/contrast, gamma, zoom, crop, rotation, etc).
  • Can be controlled remotely via sockets and text commands (for easy integration into various image analysis systems).
  • Images can be uploaded into Imview via sockets or shared memory.
  • And much more!

This ImageJ plugin allows ImageJ to browse the content of an Orthanc server, then import 2D/3D DICOM images from Orthanc into ImageJ. Orthanc is a lightweight, RESTful DICOM server for healthcare and medical research.

This plugin simplifies the indexation of DICOM images if using ImageJ (e.g. for quality control of DICOM modalities, or for pedagogical use). There is also no need to carry on any complex network configuration, since the plugin directly uses the REST API of Orthanc. This makes its installation and its use quite straightforward.

pngquant is a command-line conversion utility to quantize and dither truecolor PNG images, especially those with a full alpha channel, down to 8-bit (or smaller) RGBA-palette PNGs. Such images are usually two to four times smaller than the full 32-bit versions, and partial transparency is preserved quite nicely. This makes pngquant especially useful both for Web sites and for PlayStation 2 development, where one of the texture formats is RGBA-palette-based (though not PNG-compressed). This is the same technique used for many of the images on the Miscellaneous Transparent PNGs page (http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngs-img.html), and the results are often indistinguishable from the original, truecolor PNG images.

Optimizers (like pngcrush and optipng) optimize the compression, usually losslessly, while pngquant quantizes colors down to 256 (or fewer) distinct RGBA combinations, which is lossy.

Remark of Debian Med team: About packaging status the authors said:

See the thread on the Debian Med mailing list at: http://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2009/04/msg00059.html

  • We've been working to get rid of, or replace, any remaining non-DFSG licensed plugins, but there's at least one left. The bug for tracking this is here: http://pacific.mpi-cbg.de/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19
  • At the moment Fiji depends on sun-java6 rather than openjdk.
  • The packages are rather large at the moment (about 35MiB). This is mostly due to bundling various components with Fiji that could be satisfied as dependencies in Debian, such as junit, jruby, etc. but I haven't had time to work on separating those out.
  • Fiji uses a modified version of ImageJA (which again is bundled into the fiji package) rather than depending on the imagej Debian package created by people on this list.
  • One of the aims of Fiji was to make Benjamin Schmid's Java3D-based 3D viewer plugin work out-of-the-box, since people often had trouble installing it manually. At the time when I first made these packages there were no java3d packages in Debian, but now that these are in sid we should eventually be able to switch to using those.

opendicom.net
API to DICOM in C# for Mono
Responsible: Albert Gnandt
License: LGPL

The openDICOM.NET project implements a new approach towards DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) libraries. DICOM is a worldwide standard in Medical IT and is provided by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA). This standard specifies the way medical images and meta data like study or patient related data is stored and communicated over different digital medias. Thus, DICOM is a binary protocol and data format.

The openDICOM# Class Library, main part of the openDICOM.NET project, provides an API to DICOM in C# for Mono and the .NET Framework. It is a completely new implementation of DICOM. In contrast to other similar libraries the intention of this implementation is to provide a clean classification with support of unidirectional DICOM data streaming. Another implemented goal is the support of DICOM as XML. This is not standard conform but very use- and powerful within software development, storage and manipulation. Currently, full read support of DICOM output stream and full write support to XML is supposed to be provided. The entire DICOM content can be accessed as sequence or as tree of class instances. Latter is the default representation of DICOM content by the library.

The openDICOM.NET Utils are a collection of console tools for working with the needed data dictionaries in different data formats (binary and textual), query of ACR-NEMA (prior DICOM standard) and DICOM files and transcoding them into image formats like JPEG and XML files. These utils are written in C# for Mono and the .NET Framework and are using the openDICOM# API for processing.

The openDICOM.NET Navigator recapitulates the openDICOM.NET Utils in form of a GTK# GUI. It provides different views with focus on DICOM data sets and visualization. Connectivity to GIMP is also given for single image processing purpose as well as the possibility to run through multi-frame images like a movie.

The openDICOM.NET Beagle Filter Plugin increases the usability of ACR-NEMA and DICOM query within your desktop. It makes DICOM content overall indexable for retrieval. The Beagle search engine relies on Mono/.NET and works in the background of your system, but is able to detect content changes in realtime (depending on your configuration).

All GUI applications focus the popular GNOME desktop, but are 100% platform independent by relying on Mono.

dtitk - wnpp
DTI spatial normalization and atlas construction toolkit
License: GPL-3+
Debian package not available
Language: C++

DTI-TK is a spatial normalization & atlas construction toolkit, designed from ground up to support the manipulation of diffusion-tensor images (DTI) with special cares taken to respect the tensorial nature of the data. It implements a state-of-the-art registration algorithm that drives the alignment of white matter (WM) tracts by matching the orientation of the underlying fiber bundle at each voxel. The algorithm has been shown to both improve WM tract alignment and to enhance the power of statistical inference in clinical settings. The key features include:

  • NIfTI support for scalar, vector and DTI volumes
  • tool chains for manipulating DTI volumes: resampling, smoothing, warping, registration & visualization
  • pipelines for WM morphometry: spatial normalization & atlas construction for population-based studies
  • built-in cluster-computing support
  • interoperability with other major DTI tools: AFNI, Camino, DTIStudio & FSL

ecg2png
convert scanned electrocardiograms into PNG format
License: GPL
Debian package not available

This program is designed to convert scanned 12-lead electrocardiograms into PNG format and a web-friendly image size. It assumes that the electrocardiogram (ECG) is printed with a black line on white paper with a red grid.

The problems this program is designed to solve are (1) an ECG scanned at relatively high resolution (300 to 600 dots per inch) imposes a substantial load on the web browser because it contains about 6 million pixels which may require 18 to 24 MB of RAM to store for display. Also, (2) typical scanners convert a clean paper ECG into a multitude of colors, include green and blue. The resulting file cannot be compressed efficiently because it does not contain as much redundancy, and thus takes more time to transmit over low-speed network connections.

mesa-test-tools
IHE Test Software for Radiology
License: free
Debian package not available

The MESA software release which is available at http://ihedoc.wustl.edu/mesasoftware/10.15.0/dist/ provides several tools that might cover a wide range of applications for Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) testing.

Another important element of the IHE testing process is the set of software tools HIMSS and RSNA have commissioned. Developed by the Electronic Radiology Laboratory at the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, Washington University of St. Louis, the MESA tools are designed for use by participating companies in implementing IHE capabilities in their systems and preparing for the Connectathon. Their purpose is to provide communication partners, test data and test plans to allow organizations to provide a baseline level of testing as they implement the IHE Technical Framework. These tools are made available to participants during the period of an IHE demonstration year and are then released into the public domain at the end of that cycle. The latest version of the MESA Test Tools available in the public domain can be found here.

This kind of software is definitively valuable for information systems vendors and imaging systems vendors.

Because the CTN Debian package is based on an upstream dead project these tools should have a high priority for packaging because the CTN homepage http://erl.wustl.edu/research/dicom/ctn.html says: "The CTN software is also embedded within the MESA tools. The version of CTN software in those tools does not have a separate release number but is more current than version 3.0.6."
