Med-Imagetools: Transparent and Reproducible Medical Image Processing Pipelines in Python#
Med-ImageTools core features#
Med-Imagetools, a python package offers the perfect tool to transform messy medical dataset folders to deep learning ready format in few lines of code. It not only processes DICOMs consisting of different modalities (like CT, PET, RTDOSE and RTSTRUCTS), it also transforms them into deep learning ready subject based format taking the dependencies of these modalities into consideration.
Introduction#
A medical dataset, typically contains multiple different types of scans for a single patient in a single study. As seen in the figure below, the different scans containing DICOM of different modalities are interdependent on each other. For making effective machine learning models, one ought to take different modalities into account.

Med-Imagetools is a unique tool, which focuses on subject based Machine learning. It crawls the dataset and makes a network by connecting different modalities present in the dataset. Based on the user defined modalities, med-imagetools, queries the graph and process the queried raw DICOMS. The processed DICOMS are saved as nrrds, which med-imagetools converts to torchio subject dataset and eventually torch dataloader for ML pipeline.
