* We are developing methods for identifying scar tissue from CARMA data. Our previous method demonstrates an effective identification ability for DE-MRI data. In this method, the intensity distribution inside the LA myocardial wall is modeled as a mixture of Gaussians. To improve the performance of this method, we will integrate the intensity information from the LA chamber into the overall identification procedure.

Project Description

Objective

  • Adding Python modules into the Slicer environment is currently cumbersome and difficult to do. With the growth of Python as a scientific research tool, Slicer should provide an easy mechanism for inclusion of Python modules on the fly.
  • We will discuss with lead Slicer developers how to best implement a user-friendly approach to improve Python importing. Our work will be tested and documented on the Slicer wiki.

Approach, Plan

  • Discussions with JC, Steve, Andrey, and interested Python programmers
  • Document best approaches
  • Implement work in Slicer 4.3
