Can it handle .ndpi Z-stack image?

dzelemba commented 4 years ago

This tool uses OpenSlide to read various WSI formats and OpenSlide does support NDPI: https://openslide.org/formats/hamamatsu/, but OpenSlide does not support multiple focal planes: https://github.com/openslide/openslide/issues/31. Let me know if this answers your question.

Hello there, Thanks for your suggestion, it solved my queries. Do you know any libraries in python which can handle this kind of image?

No I'm not sure sorry, you could try and check out BioFormats: https://www.openmicroscopy.org/bio-formats/.
