Remarks

(Medical only) Finds the skeleton of objects or regions in a bitmap.

This method finds the skeleton of regions or objects in a binary bitmap. The white color represents the objects and the black color represents the background. If the bitmap is not a 1-bit image, the threshold will be used to transform the bitmap into a binary image before finding the skeleton.

If the bitmap has a region, this method works only on the region.

This method supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.

This method does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this method.
