Projects:GenusZeroSlicer3Module

Back to NA-MIC_Collaborations

Objective: Implement a Slicer 3 module to perform topology correction of voxel data to ensure a genus zero surface when extracting an iso-surface from the voxel data using marching cubes. This is useful for rendering purposes as well as an initial step for shape analysis methods relying on surfaces with spherical topology (i.e., genus 0, one connected component).

Progress: Finished the Slicer 3 module based on previous work by Steve Haker and Michael Rabes. A full ITK implementation is currently in progress (Michael Rabes).

Key Investigators:

• Steve Haker, Michael Rabes, Marc Niethammer, Sylvain Bouix, Steve Pieper.
