Simple Python question: How to Image3D of Mathematica can be done in Python?


In Mathematica,

id = Image3DSlices["ImageData"]

(Sorry the "ImageData" is the Yellow Image of the First Example in the following URl, but I couldn't attach here. https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/Image3DSlices.html.en ) Then just

Image3D[id]    

gives us the 3D image data from sliced images. The 3D image can be rotated freely by drag. But how can I do "Image3D" of sliced images with python?

If someone knows how to do, please help me!!


Solution

  • You can use PyVista:

    
    
    def load_slices(folder_path):
        """
        Load slices from a folder and stack them into a 3D numpy array.
        """
        slices = []
        for file_name in sorted(os.listdir(folder_path)):
            if file_name.endswith(('.png', '.jpg', '.jpeg', '.bmp', '.tif')):
                image = Image.open(os.path.join(folder_path, file_name))
                slices.append(np.array(image))
        # Stack into a 3D array
        volume = np.stack(slices, axis=0)
        return volume
    
    def visualize_3d(volume):
        """
        Visualize the 3D volume using PyVista.
        """
        # Convert the volume to a pyvista UniformGrid
        grid = pv.UniformGrid()
        grid.dimensions = volume.shape
        grid.point_data["values"] = volume.flatten(order="F")
        # Visualize the volume
        plotter = pv.Plotter()
        plotter.add_volume(grid, opacity="sigmoid", cmap="viridis")
        plotter.show()
    
    # Specify the folder containing image slices
    folder_path = "path_to_folder"
    
    # Load and visualize
    volume_data = load_slices(folder_path)
    visualize_3d(volume_data)
