Interfacing third-party software with the NA-MIC open-source toolkit
This tutorial is part of the 11th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention MICCAI 2008.
Academic Objectives
The emergence of increasingly sophisticated mathematical models, image analysis and visualization tools that have followed the rapid development of new medical imaging technologies has led to a better understanding of organ functions in human health and disease. For the past four years, the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC), one of the seven National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC), part of the NIH Roadmap for medical research, has focused its efforts on the conversion of scientific advances from the biomedical imaging community into an open-source toolkit, so as to improve the availability and deployment of advanced software tools on a national scale. The purpose of this tutorial is to provide the members of the MICCAI community with a practical experience of the image processing and 3D visualization capabilities of the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC) open-source software toolkit.
Syllabus
The workshop combines introductory lectures on the software components of the NA-MIC kit, with hands-on tutorial sessions that guide the participants through the integration of the open-source tools with third-party software. Participants will be able to interface their own algorithms with the NA-MIC kit to facilitate greater interoperability of advanced medical image analysis software tools. This course is intended for scientists and engineers of the medical image analysis community.
