Key Investigators

  • UNC NIRAL: Francois Budin
  • UNC NIRAL: Martin Styner

Objective

Analysing Diffusion Tensor Images (DTI) require some specific tools to

  • Quality control Diffusion Weighted Images (DTIPrep)
  • Provide tools to compute and process DTI (DTIProcess)
  • Create an average DTI image from a set of images (DTIAtlasBuilder)
  • Visualize and edit tracted fibers (FiberViewerLight)
  • Analyze tracts (DTIAtlasFiberAnalyzer)

The goal of this project is to develop Slicer4 extensions providing those tools and verify that they correctly perform on all available platforms.

Approach, Plan

  • Some extensions already work on all the plateform for Slicer4.3.1 but not the latest revision
  • Create launchers to start modules with Qt GUI on Windows and MacOS
  • Verify that Qt windows appear on top of the main Slicer window when the extension is started
  • Correct and update packaging process (DTIAtlasBuilder and DTIPrep)
  • Verify that the tools run and give the expected results

Progress

  • DTIProcess, FiberViewerLight and DTIAtlasFiberAnalyzer build and package for Linux, Mac and Windows, both for Slicer4.3.1 and the current nightly
  • DTIAtlasBuilder and DTIPrep build and package for Mac and Linux for Slicer4.3.1 the current nightly
