Objective
IGSTK provides connectivity with various kinds of tracking devices. However, IGSTK does not support communication with tracking devices over the network. The objective of this project is to establish Slicer-IGSTK connection through standard network to provides extensible and versatile way of configuration in image guided therapy.
Approach, Plan
We will design and implement a module to communicate with 3D slicer as a class of IGSTK. It connects to Slicer Daemon through TCP/IP and controls MRML scene (tracker and real-time image).
Progress
June 2007 Project Week
During the June 2007 Project Week, we designed communication framework for MRI-robot for Transperineum Prostate Brachytherapy (BRP Project/ PI: Dr. Clare Tempany), based on vtkIGTOpenTrackerStream.
