README.md
The Medical Imaging Interaction Toolkit (MITK) is a free open-source software system for development of interactive medical image processing software. MITK combines the Insight Toolkit (ITK) and the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) with an application framework.
The links below provide high-level and reference documentation targeting different usage scenarios:
- Get a high-level overview about MITK with pointers to further documentation
- End-users looking for help with MITK applications should read the MITK User Manual
- Developers contributing to or using MITK, please see the MITK Developer Manual as well as the MITK API Reference
See the MITK homepage for details.
Supported platforms
MITK is a cross-platform C++ toolkit and officially supports:
- Windows
- Linux
- macOS
For details, please read the Supported Platforms page.

MITK is available as free open-source software under a 3-clause BSD license.
Download
The MitkWorkbench application and a bunch of command-line apps are released twice per year on our Download page and the GitHub Releases page.
The official MITK source code is available in the MITK Git repository. The Git clone command is
git clone https://github.com/MITK/MITK.git
Active development takes place in the MITK develop branch and its usage is advised for advanced users only.
How to contribute
Contributions are encouraged. To make the contribution process as smooth as possible, please read Contributing to MITK before.
Build instructions
MITK uses CMake to configure a build tree. The following is a crash course about cloning, configuring, and building MITK with Ninja on Linux or macOS when all prerequisites are met:
git clone https://github.com/MITK/MITK.git
mkdir MITK-superbuild
cmake -S MITK -B MITK-superbuild -G "Ninja" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build MITK-superbuild
On Windows, configuring and building with Visual Studio/MSBuild would look something like this:
cmake -S MITK -B MITK-superbuild -G "Visual Studio 17 2022"
cmake --build MITK-superbuild --config Release -- -m
Read the comprehensive build instructions page for details.

The Medical Imaging Interaction Toolkit (MITK) is a free
open-source software for the development of interactive
medical image processing software. Based on MITK, we
provide the MITK Workbench, a powerful and free
application to view, process, and segment medical images,
as well as a set of useful commandline applications for
typical image processing tasks like image registration,
conversion, stitching.
