Open source, cross platform library that provides developers with extensive suite of software tools for image analysis. Developed through extreme programming methodologies, ITK builds on proven, spatially oriented architecture for processing, segmentation, and registration of scientific images in two, three, or more dimensions.

A handy, fast, and versatile 3D/4D/5D Image Visualization & Analysis System for Bioimages & Surface Objects. Vaa3D is a cross-platform (Mac, Linux, and Windows) tool for visualizing large-scale (gigabytes, and 64-bit data) 3D/4D/5D image stacks and various surface data. It is also a container of powerful modules for 3D image analysis (cell segmentation, neuron tracing, brain registration, annotation, quantitative measurement and statistics, etc) and data management. Vaa3D is very easy to be extended via a powerful plugin interface. For example, many ITK tools are being converted to Vaa3D Plugins. Vaa3D-Neuron is built upon Vaa3D to make 3D neuron reconstruction much easier. In a recent Nature Biotechnology paper (2010, 28(4), pp.348-353) about Vaa3D and Vaa3D-Neuron, an order of magnitude of performance improvement (both reconstruction accuracy and speed) was achieved compared to other tools.

This module reduces Rician noise on nhdr/nrrd DWIs. Filters image in mean squared error sense using Rician noise model. All estimations are performed as sample estimates in a "shaped neighborhood" defined by the weights extracted from structural similarity of voxels following same idea as in Non-Local Means filter.

A tool for visualizing displacement fields estimated in association with image registration. Based on the displacement vector field, a mesh is generated for visualization. The mesh can be color mapped with the jacobian determinant at each point for better localization of regions that undergo compression or expansion. Other key features include: view synchronization, adjustable mesh resolution, and conversion from deformation and HAMMER displacement fields.

A filter which allows the Laplace-Beltrami operator to determine surface harmonics in terms of PointData at each vertex. It determines the requested N most significant harmonics of a surface.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on February 23,2023. Software toolbox for rigid and nonrigid registration of images. elastix is open source software, based on the well-known Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit (ITK). The software consists of a collection of algorithms that are commonly used to solve (medical) image registration problems. The modular design of elastix allows the user to quickly configure, test, and compare different registration methods for a specific application. A command-line interface enables automated processing of large numbers of data sets, by means of scripting. A paper describing elastix contains more details: S. Klein, M. Staring, K. Murphy, M.A. Viergever, J.P.W. Pluim, elastix: a toolbox for intensity based medical image registration,; IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, vol. 29, no. 1, pp. 196 - 205, January 2010., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

Provides series of modules which enable functions of Vascular Modeling Toolkit in 3D Slicer. Functionality includes vessel enhancement filtering, level set segmentation, centerline computation, network extraction and branch splitting.VMTK is available through the extension manager for 3D Slicer from version 4.6.2. Main difference to Slicer3 version is that now all VMTK modules come as one extension bundle. This should enhance the installation experience for users.
