Welcome to the MITK Workbench!
++ Load and view medical images from all kinds of imaging modalities like X-ray, US, CT, MRI, and many more. + Use our tools to efficiently create segmentations, measure anatomical structures, inspect image statistics, or register multiple images to each other. +
+
+
+ The MITK Workbench is developed at the ↪ German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ).
+ It is based on the free open source ↪ Medical Imaging Interaction Toolkit (MITK).
+
+
Mouse navigation
++ Your images are typically shown from three different view directions at once: axial, sagittal, and coronal. + Together, the view planes resemble the shape of a three-dimensional crosshair slicing through your image data. + Use the mouse to navigate in these views. +
+Focus
+ +Use the left mouse button to focus all views on the clicked position.
+Zoom
+ +Press and hold the right mouse button and move the mouse up and down to zoom in and out.
+Pan
+ +Press and hold the middle mouse button and move the mouse to pan around.
+Scroll
+ +Use the scroll wheel to scroll through slices along the view's direction.
+Image contrast
++ For images, a vertical scale is shown right next to the views. + It is called the level window. +
++ The values shown in the level window represent the pixel intensities of an image. + The blue bar defines the range of pixel intensities that is mapped onto the whole range of displayable pixel brightness. + Hence, a shorter range of pixel intensities results in higher displayed image contrast. +
+
+ Grab the blue bar to move it up and down.
+ Grab the tips of the blue bar to change its size.
+
+ Right-click on the level window for many more options. +
