Key Investigators

  • Johns Hopkins/Vanderbilt: Bennett Landman
  • Johns Hopkins: Heba Mustufa (not attending in person)

Objective

We will extend the command line interface (CLI) to support more robust/generic communication between SLICER and third party modules. The primary object is to enable cross-compatibility between the MIPAV/JIST module framework and the SLICER CLI framework. Successful completion of this task would enable the Johns Hopkins CRUISE (cortical surface) and CATNAP (diffusion tensor imaging) modules to be run within SLICER. The secondary (and long term) objective is to establish a flexible and usable syntax for module/plugin communication with graphical front-ends which could be reused in other medical image analysis settings.

Approach, Plan

The XML syntax and parser implementation for the SLICER CLI interface will be studied. Recommendations will be made for extended (backward compatible) syntax. A prototype parser for the new schema will be implemented within SLICER.

Progress

To be filled in later.
