Welcome to BioImage Suite Web

BioImage Suite Web (bisweb) is a web-based medical image analysis suite primarily geared towards Neuroimaging Analysis. We gratefully acknowledge support from the NIH Brain Initiative under grant R24 MH114805 (Papademetris X. and Scheinost D. PIs).

A good overview of the software can be found in slides from a presentation at the 2018 NIH Brain Initiative Meeting, which was the first public introduction of the software.

BioimageSuite Web is a hybrid application and toolkit. It contains a set of command line tools, and desktop and web applications. In addition the code is modular/componentized and may be useful as a basis for other applications as well.

The software can be accessed from https://bioimagesuiteweb.github.io/webapp/. You may also download desktop and command line versions from our download side.

For end-user documentation please see the User Manual (Draft). (The sources for this are also on github at the manual repository.)

For developer documentation please look in the docs directory of this repository, starting with docs/README.md.

Code Acknoledgements: We have greatly benefited from reading the source code of xtk. We also acknowledge the many posters on Stack Overflow -- we have tried to link to some of the answers we used in the code. BioImage Suite Web uses many excellent open source tools/libraries such as node.js, electron, gulp, mocha, jsdoc, jshint, threejs, webpack, cmake, doxygen, emscripten, eigen, boostrap, JQuery and others through their dependencies.
