Stitch napari image layers in 2-3D+t

This plugin stitches images (napari layers) in 2/3D+t. Images can either be (pre-)aligned manually or on a grid.

Here's it's user guide and github repository. napari-stitcher uses multiview-stitcher for registration and fusion.

Overview

Image data by Arthur Michaut @ Jérôme Gros Lab @ Institut Pasteur.

  1. Directly stitch napari layers: Use napari to load, visualize and preposition the tiles to be stitched.
  2. When working with multi-channel data, stick to the following naming convention: {tile} :: {channel}.
  3. Load either all or just a subset of the layers into the plugin.
  4. Choose registration options: registration channel, binning and more.
  5. Stitching = registration (refining the positions, optional) + fusion (joining the tiles into a single image).
  6. The registration result is shown in the viewer and the fused channels are added as new layers.
