Welcome to the 3D Slicer3.2 User Training 101

  • The information on this page applies to 3D Slicer version 3.2.
  • Slicer 3 has been designed as
    • an easy-to-use application for 3D image analysis and visualization,
    • an open-source environment for software development,
    • a technology delivery platform for community breakthroughs.
  • Slicer3 is distributed under a BSD open source license, and is designed to enable a collaborative development environment.
  • This page contains training materials and data sets for self-guided training in the use of Slicer3
  • For questions about the materials on this page, please send an e-mail to Sonia Pujol, Ph.D. (spujol at bwh.harvard.edu).
