<h1>Objective</h1>
Deployment of whole brain seeding: data structure, fiber tracking and fast query mechanism to support editing operation and ROI-based fiber selection.

</div>

<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">

<h1>Approach, Plan</h1>

Our approach is to port the Streamline techniques used in Slicer 2 as a Command Line Module.
We plan on looking at a optimal memory representation of a full brain tractography set for optimal querying and retrival of specific fibers according to spatial locations.

<div style="width: 40%; float: left;">

<h1>Progress</h1>

* Software for the fiber tracking has been ported and interfaces has been updated to VTK 5. 
* The command line module has been developed and fiber mrml bundles have been incorporated to the XML description (joint collaboration with Casey Goodlett).
* Collaboration with parties involved in Diffusion Imaging to facilitate the incorporation of diffusion tools.
* Design decision has been made to incorporate basic display logic into DisplayMRMLNodes to meet needs across projects and improve performance.
