Slideio is a c++ library and a python module for the reading of medical images. It allows reading whole slides as well as any region of a slide. Large slides can be effectively scaled to a smaller size. The module uses internal zoom pyramids of images to make the scaling process as fast as possible. Slideio supports 2D slides as well as 3D data sets and time series.

The module delivers a raster as a numpy array and compatible with the popular computer vision library OpenCV.

The module builds accesses images through a system of image drivers that implement specifics of different image formats. Currently following drivers are implemented:

The library is built as a c++ python extension and provides c++ and python interfaces. For details visit the library WEB site.

• Python 3.6 or higher
• git For manylinux slideio provides 2 docker containers:
• x86_64 Linux: booritas/slideio-manylinux_2_28_x86_64:2.7.1
• s390x Linux: booritas/slideio-manylinux_2_28_s390x:2.7.1

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/Booritas/slideio

2. Pull docker image from the docker hub For x86_64 processor use:

docker pull booritas/slideio-manylinux_2_28_x86_64:2.7.1

For s390x processor use:

docker pull booritas/slideio-manylinux_2_28_x86_64:2.7.1

3. Start the docker container

docker run -it -v $(PWD)/slideio:/slideio  booritas/slideio-manylinux_2_28_x86_64:2.7.1 bash

4. Inside the container

cd /slideio
python3 install.py -a install

After the build process you can find installed files in the install subfolder of the slideio folder.
