Introduction
3D Slicer will be featured at RSNA 2013 through a week-long series of events, which include two hands-on courses in RSNA classrooms and a 3D Slicer exhibit in the Quantitative Imaging Reading Room. The "Quantitative Medical Imaging for Clinical Research and Practice" course (Sonia Pujol, Katarzyna Macura and Ron Kikinis) has been selected by Radiology Today in the article "Challenges and Opportunities - A Sneak Peek at RSNA 2013 With Views From President Sarah S. Donaldson, MD" Radiology Today Vol. 14 No. 10 P. 24" in two categories 'Finance and Support Research in Radiologic Sciences' and 'Promote and Advance Precision Radiology Without Increasing Costs'.
Quantitative Medical Imaging for Clinical Research and Practice
Technological breakthroughs in medical imaging hardware and the emergence of increasingly sophisticated image processing software tools permit the visualization and display of complex anatomical structures with increasing sensitivity and specificity. This course begins with an introductory presentation of state-of-the-art, clinical examples of quantitative imaging biomarkers for diagnosis and clinical trial outcome measures. Cases from multiple imaging modalities and from multiple organ systems will be highlighted to illustrate the depth and breath of this field. Participants will then be led through a series of tutorials on the basics of viewing and processing DICOM volumes in 3D using 3D SLICER (www.slicer.org). A hands-on Quantitative Imaging tutorial with pre-computed datasets will focus on basic use of 3D Slicer software, quantitative measurements from PET/CT studies, and volumetric analysis of meningioma. The course is offered in collaboration with the Johns Hopkins Institute for Clinical and Translational Research. For additional training materials on the software, please visit the 3D Slicer Compendium.

3D Interactive Visualization of DICOM images for Radiology Applications
This course will be offered by the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC) in conjunction with the Neuroimage Analysis Center (NAC), at the 99th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2013). As part of the outreach missions of these NIH funded National Centers, we have developed an offering of freely available, multi-platforms open source software to enable medical image analysis research. The 3D Visualization course along with the 3D Visualization-part1 and 3D Visualization-part2 datasets aim to introduce translational clinical scientists to the basics of viewing and interacting in 3D with DICOM volumes and anatomical models using the 3DSlicer software. For additional training materials on the software, please visit the 3D Slicer Compendium.

Quantitative Imaging Reading Room
3DSlicer: An open-source platform for segmentation, registration, quantitative imaging and 3D visualization of multi-modal image data. The 3DSlicer exhibit will consist in a series of thematic demonstrations using multi-modal image datasets, which include MRI, CT, PET and DCE. A team of 3DSlicer experts will be running the demonstrations with sample datasets or, where appropriate, data provided by attendees, and will deliver a series of daily 60-minute Meet-the-Experts sessions. The hands-on sessions will demonstrate 3D visualization functionalities (e.g. volume rendered head, thoracic and abdominal CT scans, surface rendered atlases of brain, knee, and abdomen), segmentation tools (e.g. semi-automated segmentation of a glioma case, MRI-based automated parcellation of the human brain), quantitative imaging features (e.g. longitudinal analysis of meningioma growth, PET/CT quantitative assessment of tumor response, traumatic brain injury cases follow-up) as well as image-guided therapy applications (e.g. exploration of peritumoral white matter for neurosurgical planning, registration of prostate imaging data). In addition, the exhibit will present new workflows for full brain tractography and multi-volume exploration of prostate DCE MRI data.

Meet the Experts Sessions
Daily one-hour Meet-The-Experts sessions will be held from Sunday to Thursday as part of the Quantitative Imaging Room exhibit. The sessions will give participants an opportunity to interact with the on-site faculty through software demonstrations and general question and answer sessions, which will include a series of hands-on demonstrations of the 3DSlicer modules for quantitative imaging.
