Prepare Your Data

Support Formats

First thing first, you need to get your volumetric data ready in disk. Bioxel Nodes is developed based on Simple ITK, so theoretically all formats supported by Simple ITK are supported by the addon. If your data is not in the support list, you may do the data conversion first.
