Introduction
The OpenIGTLink module is a communication interface between 3D Slicer and Open-IGT-Link-compliant devices. It enables the 3D SLicer to import various types of data such as real-time images, tracking data and other user-defined commands and data. The module supports multiple device connections. Each of connections can be configured as either server mode (the Slicer waits connections from devices) or client mode (the Slicer request connection to clients) independently.
The module works with MRML to exchange coordinate and image data with other clinical modules e.g. NeuroNav and ProstateNav in the Slicer. The module has a dedicated graphical user interface to manage and control multiple connections.
Get the Software
Get binaries
The Open IGT Link is currently distributed as a loadable module for 3D Slicer. You need to obtain 3D Slicer and Module object.
3D Slicer (Version 3.2 release)
- For Windows (32-bit)
- For Linux (x86, 32-bit)
- For Linux (x86, 64-bit)
- For Mac OS X (x86)
- For Mac OS X (PPC)
Open IGT Link Loadable Module (for Version 3.2)
- For Linux (x86, 32-bit), click here.
- For Linux (x86, 64-bit), click here.
- For Windows (32-bit), click here.
- For Mac OS X(x86), click here.
- If you'd like to build OpenIGTLink module from the source code, find the instructions here.
- Copy the binary into your-slicer3-build(install)-directory/lib/Slicer3/Modules.
- You should see OpenIGTLink in the Slicer3 module list after Slicer is started.
Build from source
How to Test It (Linux)
You need to have OpenIGTLink server or client. We offer scanner and tracker simulator program, which can be obtained from NA-MIC SandBox.
To get the source code, run following commands:
$ mkdir <working directory> $ svn co http://www.na-mic.org/svn/NAMICSandBox/trunk/BRPTools/ScannerIO ScannerIO
Then configure the source code
$ cd ScannerIO $ ccmake .
Usually, you don't need to change any setting. Just press 'c' key by 'g' key to generate Makefiles. Press 'q' to quit the ccmake interface. Now you are ready to build the program.
$ make
To send dummy coordinate data to the Slicer running on 132.174.54.204 with frame rate of 10 fps, run:
$ cd bin $ ./TrackerSim 10 c 132.174.54.204 18944
TODO
- OpenIGTLink Client
- Most of devices (e.g. MR scanner, robot) are waiting for connection from navigation software
- Slicer needs GUI interface to set up address/port for OpenIGTLink connection
- Data export through OpenIGTLink
- Each module send out image/coordinate data through MRML node
- OpenIGTLink module monitors MRML nodes
- Each module send out image/coordinate data through MRML node
- Connection Management Interface on Slicer 3
- Connection to IGSTK
- IGSTK only supports Tracker Daemon
- Integration with clinical modules
- NeuroNav
- ProstateNav
