img_add()

Bimage * img_add	(	Bstring *	file_list,
		int	flags
	)

Adds multiple images together with optional variance or standard deviation.

Parameters

*file_list	list of file names.
flags	flags to modify summation.

Returns

Bimage* resultant image (floating point).

Images are read from a number files and added.
All the images must be the same size, but could have different numbers of sub-images.
The flags that can set are:
    1   calculate the average in stead of the sum.
    2   calculate the variance as FOM
    4   calculate the standard deviation as FOM (supercedes the variance)
All images are converted to floating point.

img_add_weighed()

Bimage * img_add_weighed	(	Bstring *	file_list,
		vector< double >	weight,
		double	newavg,
		double	newstd,
		int	flags
	)

Adds multiple images together with given weights.

Parameters

*file_list	list of file names.
weight	list of weights (can be NULL).
newavg	new average for rescaling.
newstd	new standard deviation for rescaling.
flags	flags to modify summation.

Returns

Bimage* resultant image (floating point).

Images are read from a number files and added to each other, using
the given weights to determine each contribution.
The images are rescaled to a new average and standard deviation before 
weighted addition. If the given standard deviation is zero or less,
this step is omitted.
The weighed average is calculated and returned as a new image.
The flags that can set are:
    1   calculate the average in stead of the sum.
    2   calculate the variance as FOM
    4   calculate the standard deviation as FOM (supercedes the variance)
    8   center each image before summation
All images are converted to floating point.

img_catenate()

Bimage * img_catenate	(	Bstring *	file_list,
		Bstring &	rawstring,
		DataType	nudatatype,
		Vector3< long >	nusize,
		int	setZslices,
		int	fill_type,
		double	fill,
		double	newavg,
		double	newstd
	)

Catenates a list of images into a multi-image structure.

Parameters

*file_list	list of file names.
&rawstring	format for re-interpretation of file.
nudatatype	new data type (default from first image).
nusize	new size (default from images).
setZslices	flag to create 2D images from slices.
fill_type	fill type for expanding images.
fill	fill value for expanding images.
newavg	new average to set each individual image.
newstd	new standard deviation to set each individual image.

Returns

Bimage* catenated image.

The images can have different numbers of sub-images, sizes and data types.

img_setup_combined()

Bimage * img_setup_combined	(	Bstring *	file_list,
		long &	nimg,
		int	cat
	)

Sets up a list of images for concatenation or summation.

Parameters

*file_list	list of file names.
&nimg	number of concatenated images.
cat	flag to indicate concatenation.

Returns

Bimage* new image into which to write data.

The images can have different numbers of sub-images, sizes and data types.
