Home < IGT:ToolKit


The Image Guided Therapy Toolkit is a toolkit being developed at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. The IGT toolkit is a set of open source software tools integrated with supported hardware devices: www.slicer.org 3D Slicer is our main platform for software development and dissemination, and OpenIGTLink is a communication protocol that allows Slicer3 to communicate with imaging devices, trackers and medical robots. We encourage you to download and use the free tools and welcome any comments or feedback.
