Reading *.mhd/*.raw format in python

Question

Can anyone please tell me the way I can read a dataset containing .mhd/.raw files in python?

Answer 1

Using skimage may be even easier after you installed SimpleITK

import skimage.io as io
img = io.imread('file.mhd', plugin='simpleitk')

This will give you a numpy array with z,y,x sorting.
