The IMAGE format supports 2D or 3D images with metric information including image matrix size, voxel size, coordinate system type, position, and orientation.

The IMAGE format supports 2D or 3D images with metric information including image matrix size, voxel size, coordinate system type, position, and orientation. The body section of the IMAGE data consists of two parts: image header to transfer the metric information and image body to transfer the array of pixel or voxel values. The data type of pixel or voxel can be either scalar or vector, and numerical values can be 8-, 16-, 32-bit integer, or 32- or 64-bit floating point. The pixel values can be either big-endian or little-endian, since the sender software can specify the byte order in the image header. The format also supports “partial image transfer”, in which a region of the image is transferred instead of the whole image. This mechanism is suitable for real-time applications, in which images are updated region-by-region. The sub-volume must be box-shaped and defined by 6 parameters consisting of the indices for the corner voxel of the sub-volume and matrix size of the sub-volume.
