Key Features:

  • Exquisite volume rendering

  • Tri-plane volume slicing

  • Innovative, powerful opacity transfer function / window / level widget

  • Support for

    • NumPy Arrays

    • itk.Image

    • vtk.vtkImageData

    • Dask Arrays

    • ImageJ / Fiji / ImageJ2 images

    • Additional NumPy Array-like objects

  • Anisotropic voxel spacing supported

  • 3D and 2D image support

  • Line profiles

  • Combine with other ipywidgets to quickly create graphical interfaces to algorithms

itk-jupyter-widgets demo

These widgets are designed to support image analysis with the Insight Toolkit (ITK), but they also work with other spatial analysis tools in the scientific Python ecosystem.

These widgets are built on itk.js and vtk.js.

Installation

To install the widgets for the Jupyter Notebook:

pip install itkwidgets

For Jupyter Lab, additionally run:

jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager itk-jupyter-widgets

Usage

In Jupyter, import the view function:

from itkwidgets import view

Then, call the view function at the end of a cell, passing in the image to examine:

view(image)

For information on additional options, see the view function docstring:

view?

Other available widgets:

  • itkwidgets.line_profile

Advanced Usage

The itk-jupyter-widgets are based on ipywidgets. As a consequence, widgets traits can be queried, assigned, or observed with the viewer object returned by the view function. itk-jupyter-widgets can be combined with other ipywidgets to quickly explore algorithm parameters, create graphical interfaces, or create data visualization dashboards.

Troubleshooting

If you experience the notebook warning:

IOPub data rate exceeded.
The notebook server will temporarily stop sending output
to the client in order to avoid crashing it.
To change this limit, set the config variable
`--NotebookApp.iopub_data_rate_limit`.

Set the notebook configuration value:

jupyter notebook --NotebookApp.iopub_data_rate_limit=1e12

Hacking

Participation is welcome! For a development installation (requires Node.js):

git clone https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/itk-jupyter-widgets.git
cd itk-jupyter-widgets
python -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt -r requirements.txt
python -m pip install -e .
jupyter nbextension install --py --symlink --sys-prefix itkwidgets
jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix itkwidgets
jupyter nbextension enable --py --sys-prefix widgetsnbextension
python -m pytest

The above commands will setup your system for development with the Jupyter Notebook. To develop for Jupyter Lab, additionally run:

jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager
jupyter labextension install ./js
