Objective
Our objective is to demonstrate integration of advanced visualization algorithms in a clinical workstation through the logic and functionality of Slicer3.
Approach, Plan
Our plan is to finish integrating Slicer3 including support for custom modules, and to add a custom MRML scene to the main viewer featuring a 6 plane cubic representation of the volume with an additional oblique cut plane.
Progress
We integrated Slicer3 alpha with our 2D workstation by directly modifying the Slicer3 base code, passing window handles through Slicer3's GUI objects. Modifying the base code prevented maintainability of Slicer3 updates as changes had to be reimplimented. Currently, we can integrate the Slicer3 beta without modifying the base code by extracting the render windows through existing accessor methods and adding them to our workstation through a managed version of VTK.
