Additional External Collaborations

This section describes external collaborations with NA-MIC that are funded by other mechanisms:

	PAR-05-057: BRAINS Morphology and Image Analysis This project is a funded under a Continued Development and Maintenance of Software grant to PIs Vincent Magnotta, Hans Johnson, Jeremy Bockholt, and Nancy Andreasen at the University of Iowa. The goal of this project is to update the BRAINS image analysis software developed at the University of Iowa. More...
	Vascular Modeling Toolkit Collaboration Slicer as a platform for segmentation and geometric analysis of vascular segments and image-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD). More... Collaboration with Luca Antiga of the Mario Negri Institute.
	Children's Pediatric Cardiology Collaboration with SCI/SPL/Northeastern Collaboration with John Triedman, Matt Jolley, Dana Brooks, SCI.
	NA-MIC Collaboration with NITRC The NA-MIC Project is working to make NA-MIC neuroimaging software available through the NITRC web site. Supplemental support is helping to create the Slicer3 Loadable Modules project so that slicer plugins can be hosted on NITRC, allowing greater scalability for developers and users of Slicer.
NAC website	NA-MIC Collaboration with NAC NAC, the neuroimage analysis center, is a national resource center. NAC is relying on the NA-MIC kit for its general software environment. The mission of NAC is to develop novel concepts for the analysis of images of the brain and develop and disseminate tools based on those concepts.
	NA-MIC Collaboration with NCIGT NCIGT is leveraging the NA-MIC kit as a platform for developing dedicated IGT capabilities.
	NA-MIC Collaboration with Research and Development Project on Intelligent Surgical Instruments Intelligent Surgical Instruments Projects uses Open-source software engineering tools developed by NA-MIC, and leverage it to surgical robotics.
	Real Time Computer Simulation of Human Soft Organ Deformation for Computer Assisted Surgery Real Time Computer Simulation of Human Soft Organ Deformation for Computer Assisted Surgery.
	Real-Time Computing for Image Guided Neurosurgery Using the Tera Grid to implement mesh-based non-rigid registration for Neurosurgery.
	NA-MIC support for Harvard CTSC Translational Imaging Consortium The Harvard CTSC Translational Imaging Consortium is using NA-MIC communication tools to facilitate the rapid deployment of expertise in medical imaging acquisition, analysis and visualization to clinical translational investigators.
	Stanford Simbios Our sister NCBC at Stanford, dedicated to biomedical simulation, is working to adapt NA-MIC image analysis routines generate simulation models directly from MRI scans.
