Objective
The Vascular Modeling Toolkit (VMTK) is a collection of libraries and tools for 3D reconstruction, geometric analysis, mesh generation and surface data analysis for image-based modeling of blood vessels. It should be very interesting to offer such techniques in Slicer3.
Approach, Plan
VMTK provides Python pipeable scripts (PypeS) to connect various commands and/or scripts. An automated mechanism to generate non-interactive Slicer modules has already been implemented.
The plan is to write a python scripted module for Slicer3 that connects to VMTK pipes and provides the same user interaction style found in VMTK. This is necessary for interactive segmentation.
In addition, a collection of non-interactive modules relevant to segmentation and characterization of vascular networks will be generated.
Finally, Slicer-vmtk packaging issues will be tackled.
Progress
For preparation:
- ground work for making an interactive python scripted module
- playing with VMTK pypes to generate some CLI VMTK scripts
