ITK::Image Writer (KW)

ITKImageProcessing (ITKImageProcessing)

Description

This Filter will save images based on an array that represents grayscale, RGB or ARGB color values. If the input array represents a 3D volume, the Filter will output a series of slices along one of the orthogonal axes. The options are to produce XY slices along the Z axis, XZ slices along the Y axis or YZ slices along the X axis. The user has the option to save in one of 3 standard image formats: TIF, BMP, or PNG. The output files will be numbered sequentially starting at zero (0) and ending at the total dimensions for the chosen axis. For example, if the Z axis has 117 dimensions, 117 XY image files will be produced and numbered 0 to 116. Unless the data is a single slice then only a single image will be produced using the name given in the Output File parameter.

An example of a Filter that produces color data that can be used as input to this Filter is the Generate IPF Colors Filter, which will generate RGB values for each voxel in the volume.
