Built in modules
- Slicer Base functionality
- Access to full internals of Slicer
Loadable modules
- Optional modules distributed with Slicer
- Third party modules
- Access to full internals of Slicer
Scripted modules
- Written in Tcl or Python
- Access to a subset of Slicer API (wrapped methods)
Command line modules
- Simplest way to add functionality to Slicer
- XML specification of plugin parameters
- GUI, Logic, Node automatically constructed
- Limited access to Slicer data
- Types
  - Executable modules
    - Can be run inside Slicer or in batch
  - Shared objects modules
    - Same source code style as Executable modules but with direct access to some data in MRML tree
  - Python modules
    - Similar coding style as shared object modules but in Python
