Objective
The Vascular Modeling Toolkit (VMTK) is a collection of libraries and tools for 3D reconstruction, geometric analysis, mesh generation and surface data analysis for image-based modeling of blood vessels.
Several 3D Slicer extensions already exist and provide VMTK functionality in Slicer3.
Approach, Plan
We want to investigate how to include the VMTK in 3D Slicer functionality in the upcoming Slicer4 application. This should include several enhancements to the existing user interfaces.
Progress
Project Week Update: Unfortunately, we did not have as much time as we liked to spend on this project. Nevertheless, we created a QT widget to optimize the selection of user-defined parameters for vessel enhancement. The new widget will be part of the upcoming first VMTK module for Slicer4 called VMTKVesselness4.
We plan to investigate if the integration of the new widget in CTK makes sense.
