Introduction
- Sponsored by
IGT program of CIMIT
This is a working meeting for research groups with funding to work on the IGT extensions of the NA-MIC kit. There will be a follow up meeting during the NA-MIC AHM in SLC.
Summary
Over 20 researchers attended this meeting.

Dates.Location.Hotels
Date: December 12-14, 2007
SPL at 1249 Boylston Street, Boston MA. (Directions)
Area hotels: Boston_Hotels
Goal
- Continued discussion of Slicer IGT infrastructure, applications, and timelines
- Introduce each team's effort in Slicer in the context of IGT
- Find unmet needs
- Identify high-priority working items
- Identify each team's potential contribution to the high-priority tasks
Agenda
Wednesday, December 12
Theme: Where are we?
- 12noon: lunch
- 12:55pm: Welcome (Ron Kikinis)
- 1-2pm:
- Slicer: overview of architecture, current status, and future plans (Pieper, Hata)
- History
- Clinical applications
- transition from 2.6 to 3
- resource
- Slicer Core + Loadable Modules
- IGSTK
- Architecture Overview (Ibanez)
- Current status, and future plans (Cheng) Refactoring Design Discussion
- IGSTK has time stamping for tracker and event.
- Monitors to ensure the minimal latency between display and data acquisition (possible take away from IGSTK to Slicer).
- GUI tools for sample programs are FLTK and Qt
- Slicer: overview of architecture, current status, and future plans (Pieper, Hata)
- 215-330pm: Setting goals for meeting: Each IGT group present what they want to achieve at this meeting.
- 2:30-3:00pm - NCIGT CIGL Stoll and Demo
- Issues for Slicer
- 2:30-3:00pm - NCIGT CIGL Stoll and Demo
- Move toward multi-process model, keep idea of GPU capability in mind for future
- online/unsupervised segmentation, online/fast registration (almost like tracking); can trade some accuracy for speed
- flexibility in registration techniques - data collection is not perfectly constrained (patient positions vary, image quality varies, fiducials sometimes/not) - tools for anatomy-based registration
- 3:00-3:15 - NA-MIC Collaborator Georgetown Cleary/Yaniv
- 3:15-3:30 - NA-MIC DBP Queens/JHU Gobbi/Csoma/Kazanzides
- 3:30pm-3:45pm: Review of today's progress
- Did you find what the others are doing with Slicer?
Adjourn
- 4-6pm (optional) demonstration of Slicer for control and display of MRI scanner (prostate module) @Advanced MRI center, 221 Longwood
- See slicer-MRI demo
Thursday, December 13
Morning
Theme: Where are we?
- 9:00am breakfast, start work
9-10:00am Demos:
- Hata (Tracking at BWH)
- Freudling (Pieper) (Volume rendering)
1000-10:30am Demonstrations
- Robot-assisted neurosurgery with Slicer (Kazanzides)
- Robot connected to Slicer via Robot control unit (with Real time OS)
- Slicer CT coords != Stealthstation CT coords
- Needs rasToIjk matrix from xml file
- Inter-computer communication
- Slicer 3 IGT update
10:30am: Identifying the unmet needs
(At this point, representatives from each site should start thinking which part of the unment needs they can take primary responsibility, and take home as homework.)
- Queens: NA-MIC DBP
- JHU: BRP
- BWH: NCIGT etc.
- Georgetown: Liver RF
- Kitware-BWH
- Identify the unique needs in IGT
- Identify commonality among the projects
- which one is to be covered by actively funded project?
- Identity and prioritize unmet needs
- Find commonality among the needs, consolidate if necessary
- Identify 2x three focus groups for afternoon
Plug-in mechanism
- Currently we use CMake + Slicer3
- Compile vs. Run-time -> run-time is current choice for Steve
- Slicer Base version 3.0
- Binary distributed againg Base version
- Firefox extension
- How do you balance testing and flexibility.
- Version control necessary
- which is module
- effort underway in NA-MIC/NAC
- Be ready by XXXXXX.
- Module/function dependency
- Tracker I/O (BWH Hata)
- Tracker On/Off
- Real-Image I/O (BWH Hata)
- Video capturing
- Simple loading image
- Imager control for each modality
- MRI (NCIGT Tokuda)
- Image re-slicing based on tracker (BWH Hata Liu)
- GUI configuration control (XXX)
- Human interface control
- Foot pedal (BWH Liu)
- Stereo
- Output to outside display
- Logging replay and saving
- IGSTK has fast version
- MRML scene recorder (Georgetown)
- Module/function dependency
