| − | = Prepare Slicer3 =
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Downloading and Compiling the source ==
| |
| − | *'''Download and compile''' a copy of Slicer3 as described in [[Slicer3:Build_Instructions]].
| |
| − | ** !! use http://www.na-mic.org/svn/Slicer3/branches/igt_cuda_merge as the source !!
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Setting up the 3D Slicer ==
| |
| − | #Start up Slicer3
| |
| − | #Select the '''OpenIGTLink Module''' from the Modules Tab. [[Image:Slicer3_Select_OpenIGTLinkModule.png|thumb|none|Select the OpenIGTLink Module]]
| |
| − | #Start the server, by clicking on the '''Connector Browser''' Tab. [[Image:Slicer3_Enable_OpenIGT_Server.png|thumb|none|Enable OpenIGT Server]]
| |
| − | ##Add a Server
| |
| − | ##Select a Name (optional)
| |
| − | ##Set the type to server
| |
| − | ##Enable the server by setting the status to 'Enabled'.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Get IP-Address of the Slicer Computer ==
| |
| − | Store the IP-Address of the computer. This is done by 'ipconfig' on Windows and 'ifconfig' on UNIX.

| − | = Prepare the Image Provider =
| |
| − | == Downloading and Compilation ==
| |
| − | *Check out the Server code from http://www.na-mic.org/svn/NAMICSandBox/trunk/BRPTools/ScannerIO
| |
| − | svn co http://www.na-mic.org/svn/NAMICSandBox/trunk/BRPTools/ScannerIO
| |
| − | *Compile the Code
| |
| − | cmake .
| |
| − | make
| |
| − | *Download the data package with ct-scans of a human heart [[Media:heart256.zip]] and unzip it into the source directory
| |
| − | == Start the Scanner-Simulator ==
| |
| − | *start the scanner with the Arguments:
| |
| − | Usage: ./bin/ScannerSim <x> <y> <z> <type> <rx> <ry> <rz> <fname_temp> <bindex> <eindex> <fps> <hostname>
| |
| − | <x>, <y>, <z> : Number of pixels in x, y and z direction.
| |
| − | <type> : Type (2:int8 3:uint8 4:int16 5:uint16 6:int32 7:uint32
| |
| − | <rx>, <ry>, <rz>: resolution (pixel size) in x, y and z direction
| |
| − | <fname_temp> : File name template (e.g. "RawImage_%04d.raw").
| |
| − | <bindex> : Begin index.
| |
| − | <eindex> : End index.
| |
| − | <fps> : Frame rate (frames per second).
| |
| − | <hostname> : hostname (port# is fixed to 18944)
| |
| − | *For the heart dataset the following will do:
| |
| − | ./bin/ScannerSim 256 256 256 3 1 1 1 heart256-%d.raw 1 5 10 [Slicer-IP-Address]
| |
| − | | |
| − | = Check Connection =
| |
| − | #The Provider should now transfer images to Slicer3 (should be running)
| |
| − | #In Slicer3 go to the '''Data''' Module
| |
| − | #In the '''Display & Modify Scene''' section should now be a new node called ''Scanner(vtkMRMLScalarVolumeNode1)''. [[Image:Slicer3_OpenIGT_Data_Shows_Scanner_Node.png|thumb|none|Scanner Visible]]
| |
| − | #Select the module '''VolumeRendering'''.
| |
| − | #You can now choose ''Scanner'' as '''Source Volume''' [[Image:Slicer3_OpenIGT_VolumeRendering_SelectScanner.png|thumb|none|Select Scanner in Volume Rendering Module]]
