SkeletonCommand Class

Summary

Finds the skeleton of objects or regions in the image. This command is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Syntax

C++/CLI

Python

public class SkeletonCommand : RasterCommand

public ref class SkeletonCommand : public RasterCommand

class SkeletonCommand(RasterCommand):

Remarks

This command finds the skeleton of regions or objects in a binary image. The white color represents the objects and the black color represents the background. If the image is not a 1-bit image, the Threshold will be used to transform the image into a binary image before finding the skeleton.
If the image has a region, this command works only on the region.
This command 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 command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

Example

Run the SkeletonCommand on an image.

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Effects; 
 
 
public void SkeletonCommandExample() 
{ 
   // Load an image 
   RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs(); 
   codecs.ThrowExceptionsOnInvalidImages = true; 
 
   RasterImage image = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "sample5.cmp")); 
 
   // Prepare the command 
   SkeletonCommand command = new SkeletonCommand(); 
   command.Threshold = 128; 
   command.Run(image); 
   codecs.Save(image, Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Result.jpg"), RasterImageFormat.Jpeg, 24); 
 
}

   public const string ImagesDir = @"C:\LEADTOOLS23\Resources\Images";
