Slicer 4: general GUI

• "flicker bug": when moving cursor out of FOV, the app locks up for seconds to minutes displaying "flicker" in the magnifying view. -> known & reported in Mantis
• GUI: does not highlight bottom parts of pulldown menu (e.g. rename volume). Very non-intuitive behavior that makes it difficult for the user to know what was actually selected from the menu. -> known & reported in Mantis
• Data module: MRML viewpanel really needs to be bigger and resizable! Very cumbersome to navigate once more than 4 pieces of data are loaded. -> known & reported in Mantis

Slicer 4: Registration modules

• move old versions to a "Legacy" menu: Fast Rigid, Fast Affine, Fast NonrigidBSpline -> done.
• cannot yet test ACPC module and Fiducial Registration module, since main "Fiducials" menu is not yet avail. -> fiducials are now under "Annotations"
• crash when moving volumes in MRML tree
• crash when adjusting slice views
• BRAINSfit not yet implemented -> plan to implement as statically compiled module, using ITK4 beta. See RSNA devel. plan: [1]
• Main functionality testing:
  • fast affine: ok
  • fast rigid: ok
  • fast BSpline: ok
  • expert auto:
    • "Apply" button does not dim when clicked & reg. is running -> known & reported in Mantis
    • progress bars not functional
    • Expert Auto Rigid: ok
    • Expert Auto Affine: ok
    • Expert Auto PipelineRigid:
    • Expert Auto PipelineAffine:
    • Expert Auto BSpline:
    • Expert Auto PipelineBSpline:

Slicer 4 Registration Demo Case for RSNA

• RSNA Demo page
• Suggested cases:
  • Case 06: Breast Cancer MRI: impressive if successful, but narrow parameter range for success, old BSpline seems to work better than BRAINSfit
  • Case 31: TBI
  • Case 36: Head & Neck Cancer CT
  • Case 42: Infant Brain MRI
