New Utility Functions for Use with Profile-Based Color Space Conversion Functions
Control Point Selection Tool Now Works on Macintosh® Systems
The toolbox now includes functions for reading metadata and image data from two additional medical image file formats. Analyze 7.5 and Interfile. For more information, see Reading and Writing Data in Medical Formats.
The toolbox includes three functions, impoint, imline, and imrect, that you can use to create draggable points, lines, and rectangles in a figure window. These functions can be used as building blocks for other GUI tools.
The Image Tool now includes a new Distance tool that you can use to determine the distance between any two points in an image. This tool is also available in the toolbox's suite of modular interactive GUI tools. Using the imdistline function you can add the Distance tool to GUIs of your own creation. For more information, see Measuring Features in an Image
The Adjust Contrast tool has been redesigned to provide better usability. For examples, the Adjust Contrast tool Window/Level capability is now a separate mode with its own activation button.
The toolbox has two new utility functions, iccroot and iccfind, for use with the profile-based color conversion functions. For more information, see Performing Profile-based Color Space Conversions.
The Image Processing Toolbox™ User's Guide includes a new section, Working with Image Sequences, that describes which toolbox functions can be used with sequences of image, also known as image stacks
The Control Point Selection Tool now works on Macintosh® systems.
The following table lists toolbox functions that have been made obsolete or removed in this version.
Function | Enhancement |
|---|---|
impositionrect | This function is obsolete. Use imrect to perform the same tasks. |
pixval | This function is obsolete. It now issues a warning when used. Use impixelinfo for pixel reporting and use imdistline for measuring distance |
The imtool function is not compilable with the MATLAB Compiler.
