 Fig 1. Surface rendering of cell nuclei in tissue section of a mouse mammary gland. The dataset was acquired using a Zeiss 510 Meta at 0.14um in-plane and 0.33um between-plane resolution. Endothelial cell nuclei (yellow) were identified using an antibody stain (CD-31). Other cells are marked in blue. |

Objective
To implement a microscopy image analysis pipeline in Slicer3, specifically tailored for characterizing the tumor microenvironment as observed in the murine breast tumors. The goal will be to validate the theories shown as schematic from [Vargo-Gogola 2007] (rightmost image).
Approach, Plan
Integrate existing segmentation, validation and labeling pipelines into the Slicer3 framework. Begin with level set methods of [Mosaliganti 2008] . Then the tessellation based method of the same authors, time permitting. Explore what can be obtained with EMSegement of Slicer3. Compare and contrast all sets of results. Also, explore labeling capabilities of Slicer3.
Progress
We wanted to investigate the use of Slicer3 for building a microscopy pipeline and integrate some of the modules of our existing pipeline into Slicer. To start off we used the execution model to load our segmentation algorithm through slicer and started working on building a loadable module for slicer.
We got Grid Wizard running and set up for our pipeline (need to resolve resource manager issue)
