Abstract

Incorporating the functionality of the MGH developed Freesurfer front end query tool (QDEC) into Slicer 3. Explore related issues of how to better integrate Freesurfer and Slicer3.

Discussion

  • What defines a successful integration?
    •  ?
  • What's a list of issues that need a good working solution?
    • being able to read volume encoced scalar format - done, changes made to vtkMRMLModelStorageNode
    • being able to composite scalars in Slicer3 - done, vtkMRMLModelNode::CompositeScalars
  • Identify which parts of this project are:
  1. internal developments, tightly coupled to the MGH environment
  2. features that Slicer3 might have in order to provide some qdec-type functionality to a potentially wider audience (say, BIRN users on windows)
    1. code in slicer for reading mgh file formats (mgz, surfaces, annotations, etc) into ITK and VTK which is duplicated with code used in qdec, scuba, etc.
  3. what common libraries could be shared by both of those efforts.
    1. MGH host a publicly readable svn repository, perhaps called libMGH, where all this stuff would be captured as the "official" reference implementation. MGH internal projects also rely on the library so that other users could be confident that the library is up to date and fully compatible.
