Key Investigators

  • BWH: Nicole Aucoin

Objective

Revisting the Color module in Slicer3 to expand it's functionality, as well as it's integration with the Volumes and Editor modules.

Approach, Plan

  • Fix bug color module and color picker should work with each other
  • Fix bug FreeSurfer procedural color nodes do not display correctly in Color module
  • Introduce sub menus in the color node selector (may need to subclass the node selector widget, or write it as a standard menu). Suggested divisions:
    • continuous versus discrete
    • legacy
    • atlas
    • FreeSurfer
    • by functional utility (good for registration, fMRI, etc)
  • Update module documentation to include a line describing each colour node and what it's suited for (ie Ocean for registration results)
  • Fix the names to be more descriptive in the drop down menu (FS->FreeSurfer)
  • Remove deprecated nodes
  • Update editing to allow specifying LUTs by hue/range/ramp
    • From Ron: allow quantitative specification (ie 5 is red, 10 is blue)
  • Allow pop up scale widget to show the mapping between colours and values

Progress

So far:
