Objective
For showing MRI which will be taken in realtime at a tip of the needle to a surgeon in prostate biopsy, we will track the tip of the needle using OpenCV and send its position to Slicer by using OpenIGTLink. By using the position data, we will control the scanner. As a result, we will be able to control the scanner automatically.
