We are developing methods for  registering peri-procedural electrophysiological data showing sites of RF energy application (called Carto data) in the left atrium, with post-procedural MRI data, which shows regions of scarred left atrium (see figure above), using an interative closest point algorithm (Z. Malchano et al).  The goal is to measure the distance between scar by MRI and ablation sites (Carto data) by  EP.

Software for the registration between electrophysiology Carto data and the MR angiogram has been implemented, using the ITK/VTK platform (see ISMRM 2008 abstract, Taclas et al, and figure above). This week we wrote code to quantitatively determine the distances between each ablation location, and the closest region of scar, and to determine the distances between each pixel of scar, and the nearest ablation point.   Therefore we accomplished our goal!

Objective

Currently Slicer has the ability to display a fixed set of layouts (often called 'hanging protocols' on Radiology Workstations). Most commercial packages offer a richer set of default layouts that are appropriate for certain modalities and studies, and an ability to configure and save custom layouts. This project will adapt Slicer's existing software to offer default layouts familiar to radiologists, and will develop new software and GUI to let users create and save custom layouts as well.

Approach, Plan

  • Review the current implementation in Slicer,
  • design a new layout module in Slicer's Base, and its interface.
  • Study default layouts commonly provided by commercial software and
  • create them as selectable options.
  • provide ability to show/hide/configure attributes of Slice Viewers & their controls within each layout.

Progress

  • Much cleaning up and generalizing of original layout code
  • Creation of a SlicesModule with interfaces to control each SliceViewer.
  • Reviewed default hanging protocols and customizing options on various commercial offerings at RSNA.
  • Discussed various options for representing layouts and considered them against interaction design
  • Decided on approach using compact tree-based representation for layout and simple cell-based modification of layouts.
