`Rescaling intensity values`_), we assume that images use the following dtype
ranges:

Note that float images are restricted to the range 0 to 1 even though the data
type itself can exceed this range.
type itself can exceed this range; all integer dtypes, on the other hand, have
pixel intensities that can span the entire data type range. Currently, *64-bit
(u)int images are not supported*.
Functions in ``skimage`` are designed so that they accept any of these dtypes,
but, for efficiency, *may return an image of a different dtype* (see `Output
