Project Description

Objective

  • High Priority:

Have a working UKFtractography module in Slicer4 extension:

  1. Change and update the UKFTractography.xml file for receiving a .vtk file as output.
  2. Setup CTest and ensure its working.
  3. Verify that the Tractography module works on a test invivo data set
    • Verify that the following 4 models work properly. 1-Tensor, 1-Tensor with Free-water, 2-tensor, 2-tensor with free-water.
  4. Design a logo for the extension module.
  5. Document the module (including utility functions) -- make a wiki page. (Include the References to the appropriate papers and make nice snapshots).
  6. Add the 2 utility functions to the extension module and verify if they work.
  • Optional:
  1. Use the VTK library to output the data (.vtp).
  • Future Work:
  1. Move from boost to ITK multithreading.


Approach, Plan

Progress

  • Refactored code as 3 modules (main plus 2 utility functions) bundled into an extension (as per the Slicer4 recommendation)


  • Updated the 3 module CMakeLists.txt to use the latest macros (e.g. SEMMacroBuildCLI) and added an extension specific CMakeLists.txt


  • Updated, fixed, and tested the Superbuild CMakelists.txt to be compatible with new changes


  • Got CTest working for Slicer build


  • Created and tested the .s4ext file


  • Tested Superbuild, Slicer4 build, and local .s4ext build on Mac and Fedora Linux machines


  • Made new git repo and updated the documentation


TODO

  • Get CTest to work in Superbuild
  • Finish running all the tests
  • Finish documentation, create logo, and take snapshots
  • Upload .s4ext file
