Information on Bram Platel & TU/e

About Image Analysis at the Eindhoven University of Technology

Bio and Publication List of Bram Platel

Image Guided Surgery Group

Multivalued Image Analysis & Visualization


Possible Topics of Collaboration

Deep Brain Stimulation (I'm meeting Benoit Dawant 14-18 April at Vanderbilt University to talk about their DBS research)

Diffusion Tensor Imaging

Surgical Planning / Intra-Operative Guidance for Brain Tumor Resection (Interested to see Slicer's capabilities. We have a Medtronic Polestar N20, we would like to use pre-operative data: fMRI, DTI and register this with the Polestar data during the surgery.)

Integration of Medtronic's StealthLink into Slicer (OpenIGT Link) (I'm meeting Leslie Holton, StealthLink Coordinator of Medtronic on the 22nd of April)

GPU Visualization, Depth Peeling (Nvidia's CUDA)

Scanner Deformation Analysis & Correction

Student Exchange Possibilities

Noby Hata is willing to come and give a colloquium/lecture

Junichi Tokuda Ph.D.

Personal web page

- Built robot for prostate cancer biopsy, this robot is currently no longer in use since the open MR-scanner is out of business.

- Currently working on the Open IGT Link network protocol. This protocol will be supported by IGstk and is designed to send information like image data, tracker locations, scanner protocols, etc. over a network. We will have to see if this protocol is useful for us next to Medtronic's StealthLink software. Perhaps we could build a translating proxy that translates Medtronic's StealthLink protocol to Open IGT Link, so that our applications can be Open IGT Link compatible.


Haying Liu

- Slicer software engineer, involved in maintaining the software/source code. - Demo'ed the Slicer software to me and helped me build the application from SVN. Showed me how to build a command line module and demonstrated the use of the Aurora navigation system with Slicer.


William (Sandy) Wells

Personal web page

- Discussed the correction of the distortion of our Medtronic Polestar N20 scanner. Wells pointed out several papers on image registration that might be useful, but the scanners resolution is probably too low, with a too small FOV, and there are too many artifacts for an accurate registration. - Wells is currently working on a large study on fMRI data of Schizophrenia patients.

Steve Pieper

Personal web page

- At the SPL, Steve is the Engineering Core PI on the Neuroimage Analysis Center.

- We discussed the GPU volume rendering that Ralph Brecheisen has made in our Image Guided Surgery group. SPL is interested in our project and when back in Eindhoven, Bram should discuss the sharing of the source code with Bart ter Haar Romeny. At SPL Ben Grauer, a master student of the ETH in Zürich, is currently implementing a CUDA based real time volume renderer in Slicer.

- Marek Kubicki is working on a conversion tool for DTI data of different scanners. We also have such a tool, when back in Eindhoven, Bram should discuss the sharing of the source code with Bart ter Haar Romeny.

- Kerstin Kessel is a master student from Heidlberg University in Germany and she is working on implementing the DTI conversion tool and tensor calculation in Slicer. Immediate visualization of the fiber tracks or glyphs can help figure out the correct settings for certain DTI data.


Note: - Steve pointed out a Slicer training event in Germany June 16/17 that might be interesting for our students.

- Sending students to their masters at SPL is a good option.
