Objective
Discuss and test DICOM current state and use cases in slicer4
Approach, Plan
- Test DICOM networking with sample servers.
- Review layout of the widget.
- Consider how DWI and DICOMRT should integrate with DICOM module
- Review the Slicer Data Bundle (lollipop)
- DICOM RT
- DICOM SR
- Consider how 4D data should integrate ?
- In general, modules should be able to access all DICOM fields of a loaded image
- Introduce DICOM import plugin modules? (modules that are notified when the user selects a DICOM file for loading and can extract various objects: images, models, etc.)
- Consider how DICOM module mechanisms could be used by the CLI modules for accessing/parsing DICOM studies?
Progress
- Significant discussion as part of DICOM and DICOM RT breakout sessions
- General agreement with overall goals for networking
- Specific feedback collected on interface
- Need better display Patient/Study browser (ctkDICOMModel)
- Need to improve SQL schema (ctkDICOMDatabase)
- New infrastructure
- DICOM Module needs hooks for loading specific DICOM types
- DICOM RT
- DWI DICOM
- (perhaps) DICOM SR
- Need to have software process for contributing enhancements upstream to CTK and DCMTK
- DICOM Module needs hooks for loading specific DICOM types
Delivery Mechanism
This work will be delivered to the NA-MIC Kit as a core functionality of 3D Slicer v.4
