Capabilities

Slicer4 is now faster and better than Slicer3 in almost every way:

  • Better volume rendering (GPU support on Mac)
  • Faster slice rendering and better link behavior
  • Better GUI toolkit
  • All python (plus newer vtk python bindings and, soon, SimpleITK python)
  • Improved diffusion capabilities
  • DICOM Networking

But, not all modules have been ported, notably: IA_FEMesh, FetchMI, QueryAtlas, PET/CT Fusion, IGT Modules (OpenIGTLink, NeuroNav, ProstateNav, Collect Patient Fiducials, IGT Tool Selector), 4D Image, Surface Toolbox.

Also several extensions need to be ported: VMTK, ABC, ARTIC, EMFiberCluster, FuzzySegmentation, GAMBIT, GTRACT, HammerRegistration, LabelDiameterEstimation, LesionSegmentation, plastimatch, Spine Segmentation...

Release Schedule

  • 3D Slicer version 4.0 was released for RSNA 2011 (late November).
  • 3D Slicer version 4.0.1 was released for Winter Project Week (January 2012)

Upcoming release schedule to be finalized, but roughly:

  • 3D Slicer version 4.2 before 2012 Summer Project Week
  • 3D Slicer version 4.4 before 2013 Winter Project Week
