A library to convert AIM image files to numpy arrays

Project description

aim2numpy

aim2numpy is a Python library designed to convert AIM files, specifically CT scan data from Scanco, into numpy arrays.

Installation

You can install the library using pip:

pip install aim2numpy

Usage

Here's a basic example of how to use the library:

import aim2numpy

mynumpy = aim2numpy.extract("myaimfile.aim")

AIM File Format

The AIM file format is used by Scanco Medical for storing CT scan data. These files contain volumetric data that can be used for various analyses in medical imaging and research.

Features

  • Easy Conversion: Convert AIM files to numpy arrays with a single function call.
  • Compatibility: Works with CT scan data from Scanco.
  • Extensible: Easily integrate with other Python libraries for further data processing and analysis.

Example

import aim2numpy
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Extract the numpy array from the AIM file
ct_scan_data = aim2numpy.extract("myaimfile.aim")

# Display a slice of the CT scan data
plt.imshow(ct_scan_data[:, :, ct_scan_data.shape[2] // 2], cmap='gray')
plt.title('CT Scan Slice')
plt.show()

Requirements

  • numpy
  • struct
  • matplotlib
