TWMU BrainLab OpenIGTLink PJ

Goal

the goal of this project is to test and validate the mapping of 5-ALA response in neurosurgery on the intra-operative MRI. This project is join project between Tokyo Women's Medical University and Brigham and Women's Hospital. A part of challenge is to develop proxy software to convert Medtronic stealth link and Open IGT Link.
