Key Investigators

An extension of 3D Slicer to support segmentation-based measurements with DICOM-based import and export of the results.

Objective	Approach and Plan	Progress and Next Steps
utilizes dcmqi library for reading/writing of DICOM SEG/SR demonstrate Quantitative Reporting extension improve documentation discuss next steps and specific open issues	get rid of hacks that hide SegmentEditor components individually by iterating over GUI components add functionality for continuing a saved report communication of measurements tables and integrated support into Slicer Table node (CSV/JSON/other approaches - see https://github.com/QIICR/QuantitativeReporting/issues/105) integration of measurement quantities/units into Slicer for volume nodes	discussions with Csaba Pinter about SegmentEditor and making UI components easier accessible to developers by providing methods implementation for continuing a partially completed measurement report problems: recalculation of measurements might not be possible (no information about algorithms that have been used for that) Quantitative Reporting for now only uses SegmentStatistics module for computing measurements TODO: reference to original measurement report for being able to trace modifications
