2011 Summer Project Week Plastimatch for EMSegmenter
Integrating Plastimatch into the EMSegmenter
Key Investigators

Objective
During the EMSegmenter's pre-processing we have to register our internal atlas to the subject scan. Currently we support two registration tools:
1. BRAINSFit
2. CMTK
We would like to add "plastimatch" to this list.
Approach, Plan
Investigating the commandline interface of plastimatch.
Find the right parameter for our use cases.
Progress
We added plastimatch to the EMSegmenter GUI and integrated some base code to call plastimatch.
Fixed compiler issue on i386 for stand-alone plastimatch and Slicer's plastimatch extension.
Now we have a nighly plastimatch-slicer extension for Linux 32 bit.
We had to add an option to plastimatch's reformat command to specify the target grid.
Open: Find the right parameter for our CT use cases.
