There is no standard for saving images together with overlays or ROIs yet.
ImageJ 1.x' support for that is not standardized, and quite limited (it is
impossible, for example, to specify a volume of interest).

There is no plan as of now to make it possible to save the overlays. We
are still in the process of trying to define a proper ROI model (whose
visualization are overlays, but not all overlays are ROIs). The model is
likely required before we can start thinking about saving overlays in a
future-proof manner.

Ciao,
Johannes
