Installation of ITK

← Method Overview | ● | ITK Dicom Examples →

Live Demo and Practice:

Download the source tarball from itk.org:

http://itk.org/ITK/resources/software.html
→ InsightToolkit-4.4.2.tar.gz (2013)
→ InsightToolkit-4.6.1.tar.gz (2014)
→ InsightToolkit-4.10.1.tar.gz (2016)
→ InsightToolkit-4.12.2.tar.gz (2017)
→ InsightToolkit-5.0.1.tar.gz (2019)
→ InsightToolkit-5.1.1.tar.gz (2020)
→ InsightToolkit-5.2.1.tar.gz (2021)
→ InsightToolkit-5.3rc04.tar.gz (2022)
→ InsightToolkit-5.4rc01.tar.gz (2023)
→ InsightToolkit-5.4rc01.tar.gz (2024)

Build ITK with cmake (out-of-source build recommended): 

tar xf InsightToolkit-4.4.2.tar.gz
mkdir ITK-build
cd ITK-build
cmake ../InsightToolkit-4.4.2
make

This may take some time to finish.

To shorten compilation we use the curses gui (ccmake .) to disable the following options:

  • BUILD_TESTING
  • BUILD_EXAMPLES

This brings compilation time to less than one hour.

Using a parallel build on a 4-core machine, brings the build time down to 15 minutes or so: 

make -j4

Anyways, go get yourself a coffee!
