I’m currently developing a consrol software for a camera that delivers 14 bit/sample grayscale images (specifically it’s a scientific x-ray camera).
So far I just used the upper 8 bits and passed those to a QImage, so that I could see something. However now I need to show all detail, a widget that supports HDR and tone/pseudocolour mapping is needed.
Before I start developing such a widget and subclass QImage for HDR support I’d like to know if someone already did this for Qt and published the source under LGPL.
VTK has really good Qt widgets and supports everything what you may need for medical imaging.
Currently we use ParaView. ParaView is based on VTK and Qt, fully open source and easily extensible.
