Abstract

Mantid Imaging has been developed to provide a graphical reconstruction process for users of neutron imaging instruments to eliminate the need to fall back on commercial software. Mantid Imaging builds on algorithms provided by libraries including Astra Toolbox and Tomopy to offer noise reduction, artifact removal, alignment, filtered back projection and iterative reconstruction methods. Extra functionality was added by using algorithms from ALGOTOM for ring removal and from the Core Imaging Library (CIL) for regularised 3D reconstruction.Mantid Imaging 2.4 has recently been released. It is an open source Python GUI, runs under Linux and Windows and can easily be installed on end user systems. Mantid Imaging is aimed at users with no programming background and with little image processing experience. At ISIS Mantid Imaging runs on the ISIS-Data-Analysis-as-a-Service (IDAaaS) platform, which is remotely accessible with any modern web browser and gives users access to sufficient hardware resources to handle large datasets. Extensions of Mantid Imaging for energy-resolved neutron imaging are planned for the future.
