  • IOWA: Joy Matsui, Mark Scully, Hans Johnson

Objective

We are developing a pipeline which performs DTI pair-wise registration. The goal is to create a user-friendly Slicer3 extension which performs such a registration automatically, instead of running Slicer3 modules individually (dtiprocess, BRAINSFit, BRAINSDemonWarp, ResampleDTI Volume...). Such a wrapper will generate and use scalar features (e.g FA,MD) to drive the registration between two DTI images.


Approach, Plan

Our approach is to develop a C++ based Slicer3 extension, which writes a BatchMake script, in order to call external modules as threads to perform individual steps of the pipeline.

Our plan for the project week is to develop/enhance the module.

Progress

  • Command line / UI via GenerateCLP (cf. screenshot)
  • Main BatchMake script written
  • Individual steps called as threads via BatchMake
  • Further testing / improvement needs to be achieved...
