This is an early draft! Everything is bound to change on this page!
We will probably announce by the end of July.
Background
Slicer3 has now reached a point where it can be used to perform meaningful research tasks. As part of the NA-MIC training core activities, we are providing a portfolio of tutorials for some of the basic functions and functionalities available in Slicer. Examples for such existing tutorials are the level 1 and 2 courses in the [training compendium]).
What are we looking for?
The primary purpose of this contest is to enrich the materials that are available to end-users and developers using 3D Slicer. There will be two categories:
- End-to-end procedures to accomplish particular tasks. The module Neurosurgical Planning for Image Guided Therapy using Slicer3 is an extensive example for such a tutorial.
Entries into this category will require at least
- materials about the scientific and application background and motivation,
- step-by-step guides, and
- sample data
- Use of particular algorithms. In this category the tutorial will teach a user how to make an algorithm work on their own data.
Entries into this category will require at least
