This meeting will be held in Boston on Thursday, May 5, 2011
Agenda
To brainstorm radonc computational methods between UNC, NA-MIC, BWH.
Agenda items from UNC
- PLUNC: An open source complete radiation treatment planning system
- State of the art, GPU-based dose calculation
- Fast IMRT engine
- Image registration of unlimited number of images
- Manual segmentations in axial, coronal, and sagittal slices
- User interface via dials and other continuous controls
- Available on many operating systems and computers
- Used by ~100 institutions for research
- iHERO-compatible
- 3D visualization (see item 2)
- 3D visualization in radiation treatment planning
- Integrated within PLUNC
- User interface: fully interactive pose and slice control, display entity control
- Single-GPU-based
- Methods:
- MGRview:
- Combinations of volume rendering, surface rendering, dose painting, beam outlines and views, …
- Object-coordinate based visualization operations for 3D visualization of multiple entities (objects, beams, dose, etc.) supported by texturing (2D and 3D)
- Illustration of object shape and position variations across days
- Image analysis
- Skeletal model fitting to anatomic objects
- Skeletal model analysis into eigenmodes of variation and principal variances
- Segmentation via skeletal models and statistical models of image appearance (Pablo)
- Atlas to patient diffeomorphism calculation from corresponding reference object boundary points with correspondence maintenance
- Fluid-flow and control-theoretic greyscale diffeomorphism calculation
- IGRT from 2D projections to 3D CTs
- Registration
- CT reconstructions at treatment time therefrom
- Utilities: Anti-aliased manual segmentations
- Applications: Endoscopy/CT fusion in head and neck: registration and visualization (early stages)
Agenda items from NA-MIC
- Works in Progress on RT
- DICOM RT Support Roadmap and Head and Neck Cancer Application Summary(Greg Sharp)
- Pelvic Applications Summary (Tina)
- Slicer Roadmap and its relevance to RT
More To be added.
