Project Description

Objective Approach and Plan Progress and Next Steps

From top priority to possible future work:

  • Being able to visualize, load and save volumetric meshes
  • Improving clipped visualization of models (surface models or volumetric meshes) and facilitate the display of the point data (active scalars).
  • Being able to create volumetric meshes from label maps (or segmentation?) and possibly edit them
  • Initial discussions needed with Curtis and Steve based on existing work: IA FEMesh from Slicer 3, BodyCentricCubicMesh and MeshCompression modules, and the CleaverExtension.
  • Probably investigate the creation of a MRML node similar to Models (possibly create a hierarchy between both?) that would wrap a vtkUnstructuredGrid in order to visualize, load and save the meshes.
  • Investigate best way to adapt previous Slicer-based volumetric work that allowed for creation and edition (bullet point 1) to work with the new architecture put in place within Slicer 4 (bullet point 2).
  • Some parts of the IA FEMesh module were prototyped in early Slicer 4 (Curtis).
