METHODS

name

accessor/mutator for name

created

accessor/mutator for creation timestamp

inserted

accessor/mutator for timestamp of image import

description

accessor/mutator for description

experimenter

accessor/mutator for Experimenter attribute

group

features

Returns the root features of this image (i.e., those which do not have a parent feature).

datasets

$image->datasets();

returns all datasets that the image belongs to

DefaultPixels

# accessor $image->DefaultPixels();

# mutator $image->DefaultPixels( $pixels_ID );

This is an accessor/mutator for the default pixels attribute associated with this image. Default pixels should NEVER be used for any computational purpose because they are mutable. They are used by image viewers and other non computational purposes.

The older version of this method (DefaultPixels) still exists for legacy code. New code should use the default_pixels version, which takes advantage of underlying DBObject code for reading/writing attributes.
