Read North Star Imaging CT File (Binary)

Group (Subgroup)

IOFilters (Input)

Description

This Filter does the following will import a NorthStart Imaging data set consisiting of a single .nsihdr and one or more .nsidat files. The data is read into an Image Geometry. The user can import a subvolume instead of reading the entire data set into memory.

The user should note that when using the subvolume feature that the ending voxels are inclusive.

The .nsihdr file will be read during preflight and the .nsidat file(s) will be extracted from there. The expectation is that the .nsidat files are in the same directory as the .nsihdr files.
