Whole slide imaging (WSI), the digitization of tissue on slides using whole slide scanners, is gaining traction in healthcare. WSI enables clinicians in histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and cytology to: This post explains how GPU-accelerated toolkits improve the input/output (I/O) performance and image processing tasks. More specifically, it details how to: Time savings…
]]>Image data can generally be described through two dimensions (rows and columns), with a possible additional dimension for the colors red, green, blue (RGB). However, sometimes further dimensions are required for more accurate and detailed image analysis in specific applications and domains. For example, you may want to study a three-dimensional (3D) volume, measuring the distance between two…
]]>cuCIM is a new RAPIDS library for accelerated n-dimensional image processing and image I/O. The project is now publicly available under a permissive license (Apache 2.0) and welcomes community contributions. In this post, we will cover the overall motivation behind the library and some initial benchmark results. In a complementary post on the Quansight blog, we provide guidelines on how existing…
