The goal of this project is to add a Gradient Editor for DWI data in the Volumes module of Slicer3.
 
−
As the documentation of gradients in dicom data is not standardized, MRI scanners handle them differently. Because of that there is a big need to add/modify gradients manually.
 
−
=== Background (why specific editor features are needed) ===

''TODO''

== Interface ==

This screenshots show the interface and its changes during the last months.

== How to use the editor==
 
−
*1.Step: Generate a Nrrd-header of your DWI data. Use the "Dicom to Nrrd" module in Slicer3 (Modules->Converters->Dicom to Nrrd).
 
−
**-> A .nhdr file will be created.
 
−
*2.Step: Use the output (.nhdr file) as an input of the Volumes module.
 
−
**-> The Gradient Editor will be enabled. If you load any other type of dataset the editor will be disabled.

=== What you can do with the Gradient Editor===
 
−
''TODO: more details.''
 
−
 
 
−
#'''Choose measurement frame'''.
 
−
## '''Negative''': Select the columns you want to negative.
 
−
## '''Swap''': Select two columns you want to swap.
 
−
## '''Rotate''': Select one column you want to rotate by an angle you can choose from a given set of values or set yourself.
 
−
## Set your own values.
 
−
#'''Define gradients'''.
 
−
## If the .nhdr file has the information about the gradients, the editor will put them in the text field.
 
−
## You can copy/paste your own gradients in the text field.
 
−
## You can load gradients from a plain text file or .nhdr file.
 
−
#'''Run test'''.
 
−
## Add a Fiducial List. To see if the chosen parameters are reasonable, you can run a test that automatically
 
−
### computes the Tensor and
 
−
### visualizes them by Tractography Seeding. (both with standard values)
 
−
#'''Cancel''': All parameters are restored to original.
 
−
 
 
−
== Status / Implementation Progress ==
 
−
The editor is now successfully integrated in the Volumes module of the trunk version of Slicer3.
 
−
*measurement frame (gui/load/change/save): 95%
 
−
*gradients (gui/load/change/save): 95%
 
−
*test: 50%
 
−
** tensor estimation with existing clm: 80%
 
−
** tractography fiducial seeding: 10%
 
−
*writing master thesis: 5% :-)
