Project Description

Objective

• Integration of the Segmentation infrastructure into Slicer core
• The infrastructure contains the following components:
  • SegmentationCore: Pure VTK implementation of the segmentation object, oriented VTK image data and utilities, and the automated conversion mechanism
  • Segmentation MRML: Segmentation MRML node, display node, storage node, displayable managers
  • Segmentations module: Slicer module for handling segmentation nodes, various re-usable widgets, and subject hierarchy plugins
  • Segment Editor: Slicer module for editing segmentation nodes directly. Similar to Editor, but has a C++ core, and extended functionality that makes use of the advanced Segmentations features
  • Segment Morphology: Slicer module for performing expand/shrink and logical operations (union, intersection, subtraction) on segments. Can be used for Segment Editor effects
  • Segment Registration (?): Distance map based registration of segmentations (from SlicerProstate::DistanceMapBasedRegistration, integration TBD)
• Presentation slides explaining the motivation, features, and details of the infrastructure

Approach, Plan

• Move classes into Slicer core
• Consider integrating vtkOrientedImageData to VTK core
