Tifffile is a Python library to

  1. store NumPy arrays in TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) files, and
  2. read image and metadata from TIFF-like files used in bioimaging.

Image and metadata can be read from TIFF, BigTIFF, OME-TIFF, DNG, STK, LSM, SGI, NIHImage, ImageJ, MMStack, NDTiff, FluoView, ScanImage, SEQ, GEL, SVS, SCN, SIS, BIF, ZIF (Zoomable Image File Format), QPTIFF (QPI, PKI), NDPI, and GeoTIFF formatted files.

Image data can be read as NumPy arrays or Zarr arrays/groups from strips, tiles, pages (IFDs), SubIFDs, higher order series, and pyramidal levels.

Image data can be written to TIFF, BigTIFF, OME-TIFF, and ImageJ hyperstack compatible files in multi-page, volumetric, pyramidal, memory-mappable, tiled, predicted, or compressed form.

Many compression and predictor schemes are supported via the imagecodecs library, including LZW, PackBits, Deflate, PIXTIFF, LZMA, LERC, Zstd, JPEG (8 and 12-bit, lossless), JPEG 2000, JPEG XR, JPEG XL, WebP, PNG, Jetraw, 24-bit floating-point, and horizontal differencing.

Tifffile can also be used to inspect TIFF structures, read image data from multi-dimensional file sequences, write fsspec ReferenceFileSystem for TIFF files and image file sequences, patch TIFF tag values, and parse many proprietary metadata formats.
