Adding Imaging Modalities

Imaging modalities can be added to MIAAIM by modifying the hdi-utils utility toolbox, which is used throughout each workflow in MIAAIM. Directions for adding new imaging modalities to the pipeline by modifying the hdi-utils repository are outlined below.

Importing New Modalities / Adding File Formats

Because many imaging modalities store data for a single experiment in more than one file, all imaging modalities in MIAAIM are assumed to be contained within a folder that indicates the sample identity (although, images created with a single file can be read without the folder structure.). To create a new data modality for MIAAIM, all that should be needed is a function within the hdi-utils module to read the data. If you would like to contribute, please contact us.
