FindImage

FindImage Command

Works in a similar manner as FindEntity with the exception of returning image blobs and allowing the possibility of applying operations before returning those image blobs.

Parameters

• [optional] _ref: local id to be used as reference for a given entity.
• [optional] unique: [True or False]. Indicates whether a single element is expected to match that condition.

Blocks

• [optional] results
• [optional] constraints
• [optional] link
• [optional] operations

If the constraints block is skipped, all entities with the given class are returned. If the class is skipped, all entities ever added to the system are returned.

If the requested response was a list with some number of given property keys Indicates how many values matched the search condition. If limit is provided, the number of entries returned will be n <= m (which is the actually matched quantity)

Examples

// Find an image based on some of its properties (patient_id)

"FindImage": {
    "_ref": 1,
    "constraints" : {
        "patient_id": [ "==", "TCGA-02-0070" ]
    },
    "operations": [
        {
            "type": "threshold",
            "value": 45
        }
    ],
    "result": {
        "list": ["name", "size"],
        "limit": 150,
    }
}


// Find an image connected to a "patient" entity.

"FindEntity": {
    "_ref": 344554,
    "class": "patient",
    "constraints" : {
        "patient_id": [ "==", "TCGA-02-0070" ]
    }
},

"FindImage": {
    "link": {
       "ref": 344554,
