Project Description

Objective

• SlicerIGT is an extension with modules that allow application prototyping for real time tracked and navigated medical procedures.
• Improve tutorials on the SlicerIGT website.
  • Collect use cases and add tutorials of common tasks in image-guided interventions.
    • E.g. tracked Telemed ultrasound use case
  • Define a set of tutorials for MICCAI that can be executed with real hardware on all platforms.
• Add auto-tests to SlicerIGT modules.

Approach, Plan

• Meet with current and prospective users of SlicerIGT to learn use cases and needs.
• Create tutorials that use the Multidimensional Data module for playback of recorded image-guided interventions.

Progress

Requests for next version of tutorial:

• Surgical viewpoint setup for 3D navigation.
• Trajectory (needle) planning and visualization.
• Progress visualization relative to trajectory plan.
• OCT volume reconstruction (get sample data).
• Developer tutorials about high level architecture.
