Notes on the Nrrd file format
The Nrrd file format, which is part of the NA-MIC kit, accurately represents N-dimensional raster information for scientific visualization and medical image processing. This format is used in Slicer to represent the necessary information about a DWI image volume, its anatomical orientation, and all the DWI-specific acquisition parameters for estimating the diffusion tensors, such as the measurement frame. A detailed description of the Nrrd file format use for DWI images and DTI data can be found here.
The DicomToNrrd module in Slicer can be used to convert Dicom data into Nrrd. To convert data from other file formats, such as Nifti, a tutorial describes how to construct a nhdr file from a set of images and a list of known gradients using the Teem library.
Local Organizers
- Jason Crane, PhD, Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, UCSF
- Sarah Nelson, PhD, Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, UCSF
- Daniel Rubin, MD, MS, Department of Radiology, Stanford University
Teaching Faculty
- Ron Kikinis, M.D., Surgical Planning Laboratory, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School
- Sonia Pujol, Ph.D., Surgical Planning Laboratory, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School
- Nobuhiko Hata, Ph.D., Surgical Planning Laboratory, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School
Preparation for the Workshop
The workshop combines oral presentations and instructor-led hands-on sessions with the participants working on their own laptop computers. All participants are required to come with their own laptop computer and install the software and datasets prior to the event.. A minimum of 1 GB of RAM (2 GB if possible) and a dedicated graphic accelerator with 64mb of on board graphic memory are required.
Please install the Slicer3.6.1 version appropriate to the laptop computer you'll be bringing to the tutorial:
- Windows: Slicer3-3.6.1-2010-08-23-win32.exe
- Linux 64: Slicer3-3.6.1-2010-08-23-linux-x86_64
- Linux 32: Slicer3-3.6.1-2010-08-20-linux-x86
- Mac Darwin: Slicer3-3.6.1-2010-08-20-darwin-x86
Please download the 3D Visualization dataset,Registration dataset and Diffusion dataset in preparation for the workshop.
