To develop a new interface to BRAINS that builds upon NA-MIC tools. The interface should support all major platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux, and other Unix flavors. 

'''Progress:'''
* A new tracing (editing) tool is being developed to serve as a testing ground for the new GUI. The tracing tool uses the vtkContourWidget and is built on KWWidgets. The Slicer3 look and feel has been integrated. This tracing tool is nearing a beta release and will include the following features
#Support for editing in multiple planes simultaneously
#Ability to telegraph traces into other planes
#Ability to export traces as binary images for integration into Slicer3
#Ability to export traces as BRAINS2 mask objects
#Traces will be saved in VTK XML format

'''Key Investigators:'''

* University of Iowa: Vincent Magnotta, Hans Johnson, Nancy Andreasen, Kent Williams
* The MIND Institute: Jeremy Bockholt
