volume_section_image_data

Short description

This example demonstrates how to access the image data of a volume section.

Highlights

There are two output formats available.

  1. The raw image data

    This is essentially the same as getting a slice of the volume. Data type and value are the same as the volume the section belongs to.

    raw_image = np.array (element.data.raw)

  2. The rendered image

    This yields the the image as rendered for the 3D view.

    rgb_image = np.array (element.data.rgb)

    This image is in RGBA format. Therefore you’ll get the array shape of (1, 305, 295, 4). 1 project stage, 305x295 pixels, and 4 pixel values (RGBA). You can use this image also for processing with other libraries. The screenshot above shows the image opened with Pillow.
