− | The ''MIPAV User's Guide, Volume 1,''includes the following:
| |
− |
| |
− | *Chapter 1, [[Introducing MIPAV]], presents an overview of the MIPAV software program.
| |
− | *Chapter 2, [[Installing MIPAV]], explains how to install, remove, and upgrade the MIPAV software program. It also explains how to subscribe to the MIPAV mail list and how to search the MIPAV archive.
| |
− | *Chapter 3, [[Getting Started Quickly with MIPAV]], explains how to use MIPAV to perform common functions, such as opening an image file, saving the file, and printing a log file.
| |
− | *Chapter 4, [[Understanding Image Basics]], provides background information on image file formats. It also provides information on how to view and adjust image file attributes.
| |
− | *Chapter 5, [[Working with DICOM Images]], explains how to access DICOM databases, perform queries, and retrieve image files. In addition, it explains how to send files to a database.
| |
− | *Chapter 6, [[Visualizing Images]], provides instruction on how to customize the way image files are displayed, how to magnify and minify images, how to view images together, how to view a portion of the image, and how to change image brightness and contrast by generating histograms and adjusting color look-up tables (LUTs).
| |
− | *Chapter 7, [[Segmenting Images Using Contours and Masks]], explains how to create, group, rearrange, and modify volumes of interest (VOIs); how to create masks; and how to use paint to further identify VOIs.
| |
− | *Chapter 8, [[Analyzing Images]], discusses how to calculate statistics for VOIs and masks and how to generate intensity profiles, or graphs, for images.
| |
− | *Chapter 9,[[Changing Image Datasets Using MIPAV Utilities]] . . ., explains how to use the utilities included in the software.
| |
− | *Chapter 10,[[Using Scripts (Macros) in MIPAV]], describes how to develop scripts, which you can use to customize the program.
| |
− | *Chapter 11, [[Developing Plugin Programs]], and Appendix D explain how to incorporate plug-in programs into MIPAV.
| |
− | *Chapter 12, [[Technical Support]] provides information about MIPAV technical support and also explains how to use the debug mode.
| |
− | *Appendix A, [[References]], provides a list of references that can be used to learn more about MIPAV functions.
| |
− | *Appendix B, [[DICOM Conformance]], provides a copy of the formal DICOM Conformance Statement, which specifies MIPAV's service classes, information objects, communications protocols, and media storage application profiles.
| |
− | *Appendix C, [[Supported Formats]] lists graphical and file formats supported by MIPAV. It also provides examples of MIPAV system files (such as the preference file) and explains how the user can interpret them; provides limited instruction on how to modify specific files.
| |
− | *Appendix D, [[PlugIn Algorithm Median]] gives an example of MIPAV plug in.
