Yes, there is an easy way: have your handler method return the binary
data, and set the Content-Type before returning the data, like this:

# class Root:
#     def index(self):
#         ... Generate binary data in "data" ...
#         cpg.response.headerMap['Content-Type'] = 'image/gif'
#         return data
