"""
Core image-processing pipeline for cochlear neurofilament tracing.

Handles:
  * Loading Zeiss CZI z-stacks and generic TIFF stacks (with voxel sizes).
  * Channel identification (Neurofilament vs Myo7a).
  * 3D tracing of the neurofilament network into a single continuous skeleton.
  * Myo7a-guided splitting of the field into an IHC region and an OHC region.
  * Per-region quantification: number of fibers, diameter, length,
    branch points and area covered within the field of view.

The module has no Gradio dependency so it can be unit-tested on its own.
