    • saveAsTiffStack

      public boolean saveAsTiffStack​(String path)
      Saves the stack as a multi-image TIFF using the specified path. Equivalent to IJ.saveAsTiff(imp,path), which is more convenient.

    • serialize

      public byte[] serialize()
      Converts this image to a TIFF encoded array of bytes, which can be decoded using Opener.deserialize().
