== Source ==

<br>
Data is collected from a variety of sources. Because we want to focus on the registration problem and not be distracted by image format or other data management issues, the datasets listed here are copied and reformatted. As the data becomes available a download link is added.
+
<big>
*Options for the download location is a direct link to a download page from the main  [http://www.slicer.org/pages/UserOrientation 3Dslicer user page] or XNAT Central. The former seems preferable, since the general XNAT GUI appears too complex for a simple 1-case download. We expect most users to download only 1 or 2 files closest to their particular use case, not entire study sets. Such download should be acessible with 1-2 clicks, as with other slicer resources.  
+
'''Note: the pages below were constructed during the ARRA project cycle and are no longer actively maintained. <br>
*Disk usage: Likely these example sets will grow no larger than 10GB. Estimating 50-80MB per case would allow  60-100 cases within a 5GB space.

|Welcome to the 3DSlicer Registration Case Library. This page is under continuous development as we add and refine case examples of image registration within 3DSlicer. The goal is for you to find here a case similar enough to your particular image registration problem to provide you with registration parameters, strategies and tutorials. The library is growing by virtue of '''user contributions'''; if you have an interesting case please consider our ''Call for Datasets'' on the right.  Successful registration strategies; algorithm choice and parameters vary greatly for different image contrast and content.

*Ideally we seek 2 sets for each use case to define a range of settings, i.e. one case that is average and works reasonably well, and one case that is more challenging. Both cases together then define a range. The two cases would be posted together, provided the difficult case can be solved with different settings and does not require a different approach. The latter case would then be better listed in a ''Troubleshooting'' category.
 
*The main categories will follow along the hierarchies outlined [[Projects:RegistrationDocumentation#Use_Case_Library|here]].
 
*We seek to have all datasets in a single-volume file format, most likely '''.nii''' or '''.nrrd'''
 
*Once formatting, anonymization and description are complete, listing here will be replaced with a download link. Temporarily listed are links to source databases, where avail.
 
*Anonymized data is imperative. In a first pass posting single volume files only that do not contain subject-specific meta data is the safest. Relying on the provider/user to properly anonymize is likely insufficient. It's easy to overlook single DICOM fields.  Defacing algorithms are avail. thru [[Mbirn:_Defacer_for_structural_MRI|MBIRN]] but will affect the result and require the mask to be avail. to the registration.

The Slicer Registration Case Library

Welcome to the 3DSlicer Registration Case Library. This page is under continuous development as we add and refine case examples of image registration within 3DSlicer. The goal is for you to find here a case similar enough to your particular image registration problem to provide you with registration parameters, strategies and tutorials. The library is growing by virtue of user contributions; if you have an interesting case please consider our Call for Datasets on the right. Successful registration strategies; algorithm choice and parameters vary greatly for different image contrast and content. Each listed case comprises a test dataset to try yourself, a guided step-by-step tutorial that will show you how to register the case with 3DSlicer, the solution transform so you can compare, and a custom Registration Parameter Presets file with optimized registration parameters that you can load directly into slicer.

How to get started

  • 1. browse/search the library for a case similar to yours. The library is organized by organ (brain vs. non-brain), modality (MR, CT, PET), intra- vs. inter-subject). Each case also has a list of keywords, so you may try a direct search for a case matching yours. Or for all cases in a single sortable table see here.
  • 2. If you find a good match, continue with 3. below. If you cannot find a good match, consider our Call for Datasets & Registration Service.
  • 3. from the case description page, follow the links to download the data, preset file and tutorials.
  • 4. run the tutorial on your machine with your installation of slicer (v3.6 or higher recommended)
  • 5. load the preset file and try those settings on your own data
  • 5. if you do not get a satisfactory registration results with the presets, have a look at the Registration Challenges and Key Strategies section on the download page of your case. You will find recommendations there on how to venture forth. Try the recommended adjustments.
  • 6. if still unsuccessful you may have a case of interest to the library. Consider adding your case to the library for a free registration. Also consider posting a message to the slicer user group.
  • 7. if successful we'd also love to hear: We gladly add your case with full acknowledgment to the library.
