RECIST Module in Slicer4

Key Investigators

• BWH: Nicole Aucoin

Objective

Use the Annotation rulers in a RECIST module in Slicer4.

Approach, Plan

• Map out a workflow
• Determine new data structures to deal with mapping measurements to volumes, over time
• Add a new built in module linking to Annotations
• Modify annotations to work with RECIST
  • restrict ruler ends to plane
  • 2d zoom

Progress

• Used the module template script to create a new Slicer4 module, then designer to sketch out a user interface, using the basic MRML scene tree view
• Implemented a first pass at creating a hierarchy with a loaded volume, creating a patient container and then containers for a baseline and follow up session
• Triggered adding a ruler and assigning it to a session volume
• Access current red slice viewer background volume and add it to the active session
• First pass at calculation
• TODO: debug, make it a wizard, get feedback and refine it
