Laptop Instructions
If you are bringing a laptop to the training session, please download and install the correct Slicer binary before the event. Also, consider downloading the datasets in the Data Instructions section below before the session.
You can find the correct pre-built executable for your system below:
Note: not all steps of the tutorials can be completed on 32bit operating systems due to memory limitations.
Workshop Instructions
- Step 1: (On the USB) Delete the directory Home->Data
- Step 2: Create a new directory called 'workshopData' in your home directory
- Step 3: Download the 4 archive datasets on the workshop workstation (Right-click->Save Link As->Choose 'workshopData' directory->Okay)
- Dataset 1: 3D Visualization
- Dataset 2: DiffusionMR
- Dataset 3: Neurosurgical Planning
- Dataset 4: HelloPython
- To see when the downloads are complete, go to Firefox->Downloads to monitor the progress
- Step 5: Unzip all archive datasets into 'workshopData'
- Step 6: (Personal laptop) If not done already, download the correct Slicer4 binary file (see Laptop Instructions above)
For USB participants: All tutorials except SimpleITK with Slicer, will be using the 'Slicer' icon. The SimpleITK with Slicer will be using the 'Slicer-ITKv4' icon.
