<h3>Objective</h3>
To identify solutions to difficult image registration problems that challenge the limits of current technology. Aspects of difficulty will include:
<ul>
<li>inter-subject registration
<li>truncation, missing tissue
<li>unknown initialization
<li>inter-species registration
<li>articulated deformation
</ul>
</div>

<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">

<h3>Approach, Plan</h3>
A set of difficult pair-wise registration problems will be considered. Participants will discuss workable solutions based on their expertise and background, and these solutions will be documented.

==Background==

We are pleased to announce the 15th PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for applications in Neuroscience, Image-Guided Therapy and several additional areas of biomedical research that enable personalized medicine. Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants. If you would like to learn more about this event, please [http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week click here to join our mailing list].

Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 26th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.

The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work. The hands-on activities will be done in 40-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects. Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.

This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT], and OCAIRO. It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

== Preparation ==
# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list
# The NA-MIC engineering team will be discussing infrastructure projects in a kickoff TCON on April 26, 3pm ET. In the weeks following, new and old participants from the above mailing list will be invited to join to discuss their projects, so please make sure you are on it!
# By 3pm ET on Thursday May 10, all participants to add a one line title of their project to #Projects
# By 3pm ET on Thursday June 7, all project leads to complete [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page. If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.
# By 3pm on June 14: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Matt)
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. XNAT/MIDAS). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
## Where possible, setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Matt)
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.
## See the [http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation/4.0/Developers Developer Section of slicer.org] for information.
## Projects to develop extension modules should be built against the latest Slicer4 trunk.

<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">

<h3>Objective</h3>

Implement the Demon's based non-rigid registration method published in [1,2] as a command-line module in Slicer3D.

</div>

<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">

<h3>Approach, Plan</h3>
The method is already implemented using ITK filters, but the following needs to be done:
#Refactor code to use the standard Demons registration filters in ITK.
#Integrate code with Slicer3D in the form of command line module.

</div>

<div style="width: 40%; float: left;">

<h3>Progress</h3>
#Integrated method in a CLP.
#Working communication between Slicer and CLP.
#Todo:
##Add tests.
##Been working with only one dataset.

==Background==

We are pleased to announce the 13th PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for applications in Image-Guided Therapy, Neuroscience, and several additional areas of biomedical research that enable personalized medicine. Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants. If you would like to learn more about this event, please [http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week click here to join our mailing list].

Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 28th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.

The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work. The hands-on activities will be done in 40-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects. Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.

This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]. It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

== Preparation ==

# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list
# The NA-MIC engineering team will be discussing infrastructure projects in a kickoff TCON on April 28, 3pm ET. In the weeks following, new and old participants from the above mailing list will be invited to join to discuss their projects, so please make sure you are on it!
# By 3pm ET on Thursday May 12, all participants to add a one line title of their project to #Projects
#By 3pm ET on Thursday June 9, all project leads to complete [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page. If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.
# By 3pm on June 16: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. XNAT/MIDAS). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-6/#dirlist Slicer-3-6 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].

==Background==

We are pleased to announce the 13th PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for applications in Image-Guided Therapy, Neuroscience, and several additional areas of biomedical research that enable personalized medicine. Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants. If you would like to learn more about this event, please [http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week click here to join our mailing list].

Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 28th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.

The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work. The hands-on activities will be done in 40-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects. Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.

This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]. It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.
# By 3pm on June 16: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. XNAT/MIDAS). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-6/#dirlist Slicer-3-6 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].

==Background==

We are pleased to announce the 13th PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for applications in Image-Guided Therapy, Neuroscience, and several additional areas of biomedical research that enable personalized medicine. Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants. If you would like to learn more about this event, please [http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week click here to join our mailing list].

Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 28th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.

The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work. The hands-on activities will be done in 40-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects. Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.

This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]. It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

==Background==

We are pleased to announce the 13th PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for applications in Image-Guided Therapy, Neuroscience, and several additional areas of biomedical research that enable personalized medicine. Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants. If you would like to learn more about this event, please [http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week click here to join our mailing list].

Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 28th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.

The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work. The hands-on activities will be done in 40-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects. Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.

This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]. It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

# By 3pm on June 16: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. XNAT/MIDAS). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-6/#dirlist Slicer-3-6 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).

<div style="margin: 20px;">
<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">

<h3>Objective</h3>
We have developed a probabilistic non-rigid registration framework where we
characterize the posterior distribution over deformations with a MCMC method.
In practice, a large number of deformations are drawn from the posterior distribution.
From the set of deformation samples, we can estimate the most likely deformation as well as the uncertainty of the deformation.

The objective for the Project Week is to developing a command line module that
can take the large set of deformation samples and generate useful marginal summarizes/visualizations of the registration uncertainty, e.g. marginal distribution of a biopsy point after registration.

</div>

<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">

<h3>Approach, Plan</h3>

Our approach for summarizing and visualizing registration uncertainty is described in [Risholm 2010].

Our plan for the project week is to incorporate the generation of marginal probability maps of points and surface models as a command line module in Slicer3.

</div>

<div style="width: 40%; float: left;">

<h3>Progress</h3>
We have developed a:
#A VTK class for generating marginal probability maps of deformed surface models.
#A command line module for running the code through Slicer3.

Please [[AHM_2011#Dates_Venue_Registration|click here for Dates, Venue, and Registration]] for this event.

== Agenda==

Please [[AHM_2011#Agenda|click here for the agenda for AHM 2011 and Project Week]].

==Background==

From January 10-14, 2011, the twelfth project week for hands-on research and development activity in Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications will be hosted in Salt Lake City, Utah. Participant engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithms, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical applications. The main goal of this event is to further the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers ([http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]) and their collaborators by identifying and solving programming problems during planned and ad hoc break-out sessions.

Active preparation for this conference begins with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call are sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties expressing an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the initial teleconference is to gather information about which groups/projects would be active at the upcoming event to ensure that there were sufficient resources available to meet everyone's needs. Focused discussions about individual projects are conducted during several subsequent teleconferences and permits the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in break-out sessions. In the final days leading up to the meeting, all project teams are asked to complete a template page on the wiki describing the objectives and research plan for each project.

On the first day of the conference, each project team leader delivers a short presentation to introduce their topic and individual members of their team. These brief presentations serve to both familiarize other teams doing similar work about common problems or practical solutions, and to identify potential subsets of individuals who might benefit from collaborative work. For the remainder of the conference, about 50% time is devoted to break-out discussions on topics of common interest to particular subsets and 50% to hands-on project work. For hands-on project work, attendees are organized into 30-50 small teams comprised of 2-4 individuals with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room is setup with ample work tables, internet connection, and power access. This enables each computer software development-based team to gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet, download their software and data, and work on specific projects. On the final day of the event, each project team summarizes their accomplishments in a closing presentation.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

##Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
##Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
##Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)
#Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...

<h3>Objective</h3>

Most registration methods treat tissue parameters as uniform over the image domain. For instance, when brain tissue is modeled as an elastic material, identical stiffness parameters are used for all tissue types (CSF, GM, WM). We let different tissue types take on varying stiffness parameters, so we can thereby optimize the deformation as well as the stiffness parameters at the same time. Our approach models the tissue with a linear elastic Finite Element (FE) model and solve for the linear elastic tissue parameters as well as the deformation through a Markov Chain Monte Carlo process.

However, to accurately model the tissue, we require a tissue dependent tetrahedral mesh. Assuming we have a segmentation of the brain tissue into CSF, GM and WM, we need a mesh where the tetrahedra conform to the different tissue types (the edges of a tetrahedra do not cross from one tissue type to the other but are either fully within a tissue type or on the boundary between to tissue types).

<h3>Approach, Plan</h3>
Find/Develop mesher that generates elements conforming to a labelmap.

Utilize command line tools to generate visualizations in Slicer of the registration results.

==Introduction to the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK==

We are pleased to announce the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications. Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants.

Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 16th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.

The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work. The hands-on activities will be done in 30-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise. To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects. Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.

This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]. It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.

A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events that this FIRST JOINT EVENT is based on is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].

== Preparation ==

# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list
# Join the kickoff TCON on April 16, 3pm ET.
# [[Engineering:TCON_2009|June 18 TCON]] at 3pm ET to tie loose ends. Anyone with un-addressed questions should call.
# By 3pm ET on June 11, 2009: [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page. If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.
# By 3pm on June 18, 2009: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-4/#dirlist Slicer-3-4 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].
