This fork is based on the original repo in https://github.com/bgilbert/anonymize-slide
Several users (markemus, r3m0chop and grenkoca) have updated the code to make it runnable with Python 3. Since non of their versions worked with my mrxs files I decided to fork the version from markemus in which I could fix the issues with the mrxs files. Please note that all these files are currently in the old mrxs format (with some of them being converted from the new into the old format). So far I did not test the new format.
Please note that the original readme below does not respect the current state of the script.
This is a program to remove the slide label from whole-slide images in the following formats:
- Aperio SVS
- Hamamatsu NDPI
- 3DHISTECH MRXS
Slide files are modified in place, making this program both fast and potentially destructive. Do not run it on your only copy of a slide.
Delete the label from slide.mrxs:
anonymize-slide.py slide.mrxs
Delete the label from all NDPI files in the current directory:
anonymize-slide.py *.ndpi
- Python 2.6 or 2.7
