Agenda
- Steve suggested:
- going through the vvlink and openigtlink protocols
- identifying areas places where igtl can be expanded
- finding gaps in vvlink that will need workaround (image orientation - Xenios has heuristics for this)
- reviewing options for the vv/igtl proxy server
- should this be on a stand alone machine?
- do we make this proxy code into a project of it's own or part of igtl library
- write any test code to move the vv/igtl proxy concept along (how can we use the demo from the project week as the basis for something that can be used clinically?)
- Xenios feedback on igtl library software and use cases (he ended up using the C code and not the C++)
- collect practical feedback on vvlink in the OR from Yale's experience
- get demos of Yale software and discuss interoperability options and possible funding mechanisms.
- going through the vvlink and openigtlink protocols
- Lauren O'Donnell from the BWH Neurosurgery Department can join on Tuesday afternoon to discuss what clinicians would like to see out of the system.
