``Image_Masking'' -- masks out of given region.

 

purpose:
This function takes the bounds of a cube (or plane) as inputs. It then sets all values outside of the bounds of the cube (or plane) to a user specified constant value.
input:
A loaded 2D or 3D image.
output:
A masked 8-bit volume.
parameters:
Default parameters menu is
Low x value = 1
High x value = 64
Low y value = 1
High y value = 64
Low z value = 1
High z value = 64
New gray value = 0
input from vol # = 0
copy output to vol # = 0
comments:
 
  1. The bounds of the cube are inclusive.
  2. Some may mistake the first point in the image as (0,0,0), but the first point is (1,1,1)
