Key Investigators

• Queen's: Tamas Ungi
• BWH: Junichi Tokuda, Laurent Chauvin

Objective

Consolidate the SlicerIGT extension.

• Make sure everything compiles on every platform.
• Every module has documentation, and some example use cases or tests.
• Discuss how to present individual contribution and collaboration at the same time (meeting with PIs).
• Coordinate plans between groups.

Approach, Plan

• Collect typical use cases.
• Create simulated environment to test use cases offline.
• Develop documentation and tutorials.
• Use the Thursday morning meeting

Progress

• Agreed on the scope of SlicerIGT: components for developers to rapidly prototype IGT applications.
• Discussions about use cases and integration of modules into SlicerIGT. Modules need to be usable by other modules through public logic or MRML interface.
• Agreed on common OpenIGTLink commands to control external tools from robots to ultrasound machines. The OpenIGTLinkRemote module will implement this function.
• Website for non-developers: www.slicerigt.org
• Source code on Github: [1]
