Introduction

This page contains talking points for the opening session of the NA-MIC AHM 2014 (the last one).

What we have accomplished

  • Created an outstanding scientific and engineering community in the field of Medical Image Computing (MIC).
  • Investigated novel algorithmic approaches: Particle systems, registration algorithms, segmentation algorithms,
  • Created the NA-MIC kit, a free open source platform for MIC and the basis for 3D Slicer.
  • 3D Slicer is today a platform with worldwide impact.

Highlights

  • Robust algorithms for segmentation in the face of anatomical variability: label fusion
  • A novel framework for modeling brain connectivity networks
  • Robust pipeline for processing clinical brain images

Where we go from here

  • Project week will continue.
  • 3D Slicer 4 will continue.
  • The remaining months of NA-MIC funding will be used to simplify the submission of extensions.
  • Funding:
    • NIH mandated sunset for NA-MIC in June 2014.
    • NAC funded through 2018.
    • QIICR funded through 2018.
    • Several other grants are being worked on
