Use-case scenarios

External examples

Use Scenario 1

  • I am using Slicer on my laptop and would like to use XNAT desktop to keep data organized on my hard disk

Capabilities needed

    • how to set up when I download slicer?
    • I am upgrading Slicer do I need to upgrade xnat as well?
    • I worked today on a case. I would like to add my derived data and new mrml file to the existing stuff.
    • I would like to upload stuff that is currently in Slicer
    • I would like to download a mrml file and all associated data files.

notes:

Use case for discussion (XNAT tools extension): Slicer use case

  • StoreXAR doesn't currently have this functionality
  • Tim's suggested workaround for now: separately request a catalog of all files for a given session id. This is similar to what would be returned by StoreXAR as described in the use case.
  • log into central.xnat.org and click this link to see catalog
  • There's not currently a commandline executable -- we will have to write this.
  • The HTTP Session ID needs to be attached to the HTTP Request.

Advantage Windows experience
