Checksums

ITK 5.2.1 is a patch release that makes improvements to issues found in the 5.2.0 release. For more details on ITK 5.2, see the ITK 5.2.0 Release Notes.

This release addresses various issues like improved combination of itk's native thread pool with Python’s multiprocessing module in contexts like MONAI and Dask. Other improvements include more robust label map statistic computation, expanded Python support for additional datatypes, fixes for tube spatial objects when processing with the TubeTK module, support for GCC 11, and compatibility with the C++20 and C++23 standards. A detailed list can be found in the changelog below.
