pma_python is a Python wrapper library for PMA.start (http://free.pathomation.com),
a universal viewer by Pathomation for whole slide imaging and microscopy.
YOU NEED TO HAVE PMA.START (OR PMA.CORE) RUNNING IN ORDER TO USE THIS
LIBRARY. PMA_PYTHON IS NOT A STAND-ALONE LIBRARY FOR WSI.
If you're working with
* microscopy data and are you tired of having to use a different library for each vendor specific digital slide format
* image analysis software and are you looking for a way to have complete control over your algorithms (and not just be able to select those provided for you)
* novel evaluation methods for histology / pathology and do you just wish there was a way to now automatically evaluate it on 100s of slides (batch processing)
and you're doing all of this in Python, then PMA.start and
pma_python are for you!
PMA.start can be downloaded free of charge from http://free.pathomation.com
With pma_python, you can inspect and navigate any type of
microscopic imaging file format available. Whether you have
macroscopic observations, whole slide imaging data, or fluorescent
snapshot observations, we can bring it all into Python now.
