Abstract
Insight Toolkit (ITK) is an open-source library of software components for data segmentation and registration, supported by federal funding through the National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health, and is available in the public domain. ITK is designed to complement visualization and user interface systems to provide advanced algorithms for filtering, segmentation, and registration of volumetric data. Created originally to provide preprocessing and analysis tools for medical data, ITK is being used for image processing in a wide range of applications from handwriting recognition to robotic computer vision. This chapter begins with an overview and introduction to ITK, its history, its design principles, and the resulting architecture of the collection image processing software components. The chapter also provides sources for obtaining additional information and locations for downloading ITK source code.
