Module Description
Module performs pixel-wise addition of two images. It is therefore the user's responsibility to make sure that the input images are of the same size to obtain meaningful results. The module supports input images of any data type but produces output images of signed type.
Usage
Load the input volumes(images). The default setting of the interpolation order should work fine. Its best to use the inputs of the same size as the module does pixel-wise operation.
Examples, Use Cases & Tutorials
This module can be used for producing intermediate results that can then be plugged as inputs to other filters and modules.
Quick Tour of Features and Use
- "Inputs/Outputs:" This module requires two input volumes(images), and the specification of an output volume(image). The module produces the output of the same size as the first input.
- "Parameters:" The module uses one parameter Interpolation Order. The interpolation order sets the degree of B-spline interpolation to be performed on the second input image for re-sampling it to the same size as the first input image. The default setting is 1. In general, the default parameter setting works best.
Development
Dependencies
