Since then it was continuously extended on the toolkit level, today covering a broad range of topics in biomedical image analysis and intervention support. A flexible application framework was added, the underlying plugin mechanisms were integrated in the Common Toolkit (CTK).

NA-MIC, MITK and CTK: Joint Hands-on-Workshop on Image-Guided Therapy

  • About the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing: Over the past eight years, the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC), one of the seven National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC), part of the NIH Roadmap for medical research, has focused its efforts on the transfer of the latest advances in biomedical image analysis to the clinical and scientific community, through the development and dissemination of open source tools. As part of the NA-MIC toolkit, the 3D Slicer open-source software has been developed as a technology delivery platform that is both easy to use for clinical researchers, and easy to extend for software developers. To foster the translation of NA-MIC technology to clinical research applications, the NA-MIC Training Core has developed a series of courses and tutorials on medical image analysis topics using NA-MIC open-source tools. The goal of this workshop is to provide the members of the CARS community with a practical experience of the image processing and 3D visualization capabilities of NA-MIC tools for image-guided therapy research. The workshop is intended for clinicians and engineers, and will combine a series of lectures and hands-on sessions on image-guided therapy.

It started primarily as a toolkit, combining and extending ITK and VTK to support the development of interactive applications for medical image analysis.

It enables the developer both to create custom applications or extend the MITK Workbench application.
