Omero Java API: associated label image

[DiegoG]

Dear Omero team,
I've got a question. In some image files there are associated images like label images. Is there a chance to get/read that label image with Bio-formats Java API?
Best Regards.

Hi DiegoG,

In some image files there are associated images like label images. Is there a chance to get/read that label image with Bio-formats Java API?

Whether or not such labels can be read out is determined on a file-format by file-format basis. Can you tell us what format you are currently working on? Also, can you show us what you've done so far to load the image?

The method you'll need is setSeries to choose images beyond the first (i.e. 0-th) image.

You might also like to take a look at Working with whole slide images.

All the best,
