Tools for analyzing data in CT scans

This project provides a set of small utilities for processing data from CT scanners in a variety of formats. Currently, the supported formats are:

• Xradia’s TXM format

• Volume Graphics VGI+VOL format

• Grayscale TIFF stacks (8-bit, 16-bit)

At the moment, the project’s goal is to produce a set of simple command line tools for batch processing of CT scans, and an API to permit easy access to scan data from Python.

Note

Please note that our understanding of several of the formats above is limited (in particular TXM and VGI+VOL), specifically in terms of the data types supported within these files.

If you encounter a file which does not work with CT Utils, please file a bug report so that we can enhance the suite. Obviously example files make debugging easier, but we understand there may be confidentiality issues with certain scans (publication embargoes, medical privacy, etc.). If this applies to your scans, please do not attach them to the bug report!
