import itkpocus.clarius as clarius
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import itk

img_fp=PATH_TO_FILE
video_fp=PATH_TO_FILE

img, meta = load_and_preprocess_image(img_fp)
plt.imshow(img)
print(img, meta)

vid, vid_meta = load_and_preprocess_video(video_fp)
plt.imshow(itk.array_from_image(vid)[0,:,:]) # plot first frame
print(vid, vid_meta)
