Collaboration/Iowa/Meshing/Adding VTK Interactive WWidgets to Slicer3

Return to Project Week Main Page

Key Investigators

• Iowa: Kiran Shivanna, Vincent Magnotta, Nicole Grosland
• Isomics: Steve Pieper
• Knowledge Vis: Curt Lisle
• Kitware: Will Schroeder

Objective

Work on integration of the new VTK 3D Widgets into Slicer3 for generation of finite element models. This will also include adding support for structured and unstructered grids into Slicer3

Approach, Plan

The plan for project week is to brainstorm on the best way to integerate the widgets that have been developed at the University of Iowa into Slicer3. Several SLicer3 team members may be consulted to help with this effort.
