  • BWH/Center for Neurological Imaging: David Tate


Objective

Supplement 3D Slicer and Extensible Neuroimaging Archive Toolkit (XNAT) with workflow management system. Provide integration and interoperability between 3D Slicer, XNAT Services and 3-rd party image processing applications and high performance computing systems. Implement it as within currently developed Structural Planning and Implementation in Neurological Exploration (SPINE) System.




Approach, Plan

Our approach for SOA solutions is summarized in the Main Project Page reference below.

Our plan for the project week is to present live demo for use case instances, show examples of integration Slicer3, XNAT and Cluster Computing using Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Workflow approach. Main accent will be concentrated on solutions that can be deployed on end-users workstations as well as on servers. Case Studies: PET/CT longitudinal studies, EM Segmentation (Aging and HIV Studies), Deploying Matlab routines as services.
We also planning to discuss and get feedback from Slicer developers regarding migration of stand-alone Java rich clients into Slicer Internals as QT modules: QT/C++ or PyQT.
The automation for Skull Stripping (SPECTRE) and EM Segmentation processes will be addressed
We'll try to get a solution for MS Lesion and HIV White Matter Hyper-intensity EM Segmentation

Progress


Delivery Mechanism

This work will be delivered to the NA-MIC Kit as a

  1. ITK Module No
  2. Slicer Module
    1. Built-in QT - Yes
    2. Extension -- commandline Yes (Workflow Invocation Stubs)
    3. Extension -- loadable TBD (with QT)
  3. Other -- Web Service Libraries, Workflow Composite Applications deployable on GlassFish Application Server, Rich Clients for Orchestrating Workflows and Slicer GUI
