Objective:

Over the past seven 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.

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 the NA-MIC open-source toolkit 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 prostate interventions, OpenIGTLink and white matter exploration for neurosurgical planning.

Preparation for the Workshop

The workshop combines oral presentations and instructor-led hands-on sessions with the participants working on their own laptop computers. A technical training staff will be providing one-to-one assistance as needed. All participants are required to come with their own computer and install the Slicer4 software and data. Windows XP, Linux or MacOS Lion are supported. A minimum of 1 GB of RAM (2 GB if possible) and a dedicated graphic accelerator with 64mb of on board graphic memory are required. The software and datasets will be posted a few weeks before the event.
