[http://www.slicer.org 3D Slicer], is a free, open source software package for visualization and image analysis. 3D Slicer is natively designed to be available on multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

The goal of the user group meeting is to bring together current and prospective 3D Slicer users and developers to discuss of 3D Slicer's present and future as a software application for therapy and imaging.

==Key Investigators==
* Maxime Desplanques, MGH / Politecnico di Milano
* Kevin Wang, PMH
* Greg Sharp, MGH

==Project Description==
<div style="margin: 20px;">
<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">
<h3>Objective</h3>
* The proton dose calculation module currently supports only a ray-trace algorithm
* A pencil-beam algorithm that properly models lateral scattering has been developed
</div>
<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">
<h3>Approach, Plan</h3>
* Several stages of development are needed:
** Add dose calculation algorithm selection widget to UI
** Add beam modeling options to UI
** Hook up calculation methods to new UI widgets
** Adapt the Proton Pencil Beam Algorithm to a Photon Beam Algorithm
</div>
<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">
<h3>Progress</h3>
* The Proton Beam Algorithm was adapted to photons
* The hierarchy for Proton/Photon Beam parameters/widgets in the interface was discussed
* Some parameters/widgets from the interface were hooked to the algorithms. The other ones will be hooked in the next days
