Microscopy

Overview

Microscopy applications bring new challenges to ITK at many different levels

  • Very Large datasets (TeraBytes)
    • Examples:
      • Brainbow dataset = 11000x15000x1000 x (RGB) = 500 Gigabytes for one 3D image.
      • In-toto imaging dataset = 1000x1000x200x1000x5 ~ 500 GB for one imaging session (one organ)
      • Data acquisition
        • Today 100Gb / day
        • Tomorrow 1 Tb / day
        • 3D Stacks of 250Mb (8 seconds to acquire, 900 to deconvolve)
        • J.J. Field Optics Express 2010.
  • Temporal data (2D+t, 3D+t)
  • Multiple Components
  • Very large number of objects of interest per image

Technical Details

The toolkit needs

  • More explicit representation of time and channels
  • Management of multi-resolution datasets
  • Management of multi-gigabyte datasets (TeraBytes being the standard to look for in 5 years)
  • Richer set of classes for object representations
