VMTK in 3D Slicer

The Vascular Modeling Toolkit (VMTK) is a collection of libraries and tools for 3D reconstruction, geometric analysis, mesh generation and surface data analysis for image-based modeling of blood vessels. It should be very interesting to offer such techniques in 3D Slicer.

-'''Project goal:''' Integration of VMTK in 3D Slicer<br>
+The Vascular Modeling Toolkit ([http://vmtk.org VMTK]) is a collection of libraries and tools for 3D reconstruction, geometric analysis, mesh generation and surface data analysis for image-based modeling of blood vessels. It should be very interesting to offer such techniques in 3D Slicer.
-'''Kick-Off:''' 10/15/2008
-'''Milestone 1:''' 03/31/2009
-The extraction of vessels in two and threedimensional images is part of many clinical analysis tasks.
+The official project page:
-Surgical and radiology procedures often involve the visualization and quantification of vessels in order
+http://www.vmtk.org/Main/VmtkIn3DSlicer
-to perform surgical planning or diagnostics. There is no single segmentation method that can extract
-vessels   from   every   medical   image   modality,   but   different   approaches   and   robust   algorithms   exist.
-Various   published   key   algorithms   are   available   within   an   opensource   framework   for   imagebased
-modeling of blood vessels, referred to as the Vascular Modeling Toolkit (VMTK). <br>
-The library of VMTK was made available in 3D Slicer, an application providing a wide range of tools
-for medical image processing. This was realized using a hidden loadable module approach in order to
-provide a flexible way of distributing and including the library. To evaluate and verify the integration, a
-software module offering VMTK level set segmentation methods within 3D Slicer was created.<br>
-With the successful connection of the two above mentioned software solutions, processing pipelines
-between VMTK code and other algorithms can be established. Several techniques for three dimensional
-reconstruction, geometric analysis, mesh generation and surface data analysis for imagebased modeling
-of   blood   vessels  are  now  accessible   to  the   3D   Slicer  developer.  The  reference   implementation   for
-accessing VMTK, as well as the created library module are available as opensource software.

-VMTK is the Vascular Modeling Toolkit (http://vmtk.org) and offers interesting techniques for segmentation of vessels or tube-shapes.<br>
