Course Syllabus

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, focuses 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 workshop is to provide the members of the National Cancer Institute community with a practical experience of the image processing and 3D visualization capabilities of the Slicer software platform, part of the NA-MIC toolkit.
