Usually they are aimed at a selective audience or solving a particular problem. As such they focus on certain capabilities of MITK, while ignoring others. The main reason for this is to supply the users of the application with the power of MITK for solving their tasks, without daunting them with an overwhelming number of menus and options. At the same time, this allows, together with the use of perspectives, the creation of sleek and elegant workflows, which are easily comprehensible. +Applications are special versions of MITK which contain functionality aimed at solving a special task. +Usually they are aimed at a selective audience or solving a particular problem. +As such they focus on certain capabilities of MITK, while ignoring others. +The main reason for this is to supply the users of the application with the power of MITK for solving their tasks, without daunting them with an overwhelming number of menus and options. +At the same time, this allows the creation of an elegant and easily comprehensible workflow for your task. +The Diffusion Imaging Application for example contains all the functionality necessary for the field of neuro-imaging, but does not contain support for ultrasound imaging.
