Medical imaging company Aperio has created what it’s calling "the world’s first terapixel image"–i.e. an image containing more than one trillion pixels. The image itself<\/a>, depicting a breast cancer scan*, is a 1,095,630 x 939,495 pixel<\/b> whopper that tips the scales at 2875.94GB.  More info is in the press release<\/a>. <\/p>\n

From a Photoshop\/Adobe perspective, it’s cool to see this image displayed via the Flash Player, using the same Zoomify<\/a> technology that’s in Photoshop CS3.  The folks at Aperio write,<\/p>\n

You may be interested to know Aperio has implemented BigTIFF<\/a> – support for TIFF files larger than 4GB.  After linking the new version of libtiff into our ImageServer, we were able to use the Zoomify viewer with no changes at all<\/em>.  Pretty impressive. By way of demonstration we’ve made the world’s first terapixel image, and it can be viewed right in a standard web browser with the Zoomify technology."<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

[For more Zoomify hugeness, check out the 8.6 gigapixel fresco<\/a> mentioned previously.]<\/p>\n

*Not the most asethetically compelling image–unless, I suppose, it proves that one doesn’t have breast cancer
