Description
Standardized Processing and Analysis of Thermal Imaging Data in Animal Studies.
Description
A modular framework for standardized analysis of thermal imaging data in animal experimentation. The package integrates thermographic data import (FLIR, raw, CSV), automated region of interest (ROI) segmentation based on 'EBImage' (Pau et al., 2010 <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btq046>), interactive ROI refinement, and high-throughput batch processing.
README.md
BioThermR: an R package for standardized processing, visualization, and statistical analysis of thermal imaging data in animal studies
BioThermR is an R package designed to provide an end-to-end analysis pipeline for infrared thermography (IRT) data in animal experimentation. It addresses the lack of standardized, reproducible, and batch-processing workflows in current thermal imaging analysis.

Installation
BioThermR relies on EBImage from Bioconductor for image processing. Please install it first:
if (!require("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("EBImage")
Install the latest development version from GitHub as follow:
if (!require("devtools", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("RightSZ/BioThermR")
CRAN availability
Submission to CRAN is currently in progress. The package will be available on CRAN upon acceptance.
