  Projects List

Key Investigators

• BWH: Demian Wasserman, Nicole Aucoin, Sonia Pujol

Objective

Add support for reading and writing DTI files in Nifti format

Approach, Plan

The format I/O is already implemented in ITK, change the calls to the vtkNRRDReader and vtkNRRDWriter to the corresponding ITK ones in the pertinent slicer files.

Progress

Worked with Nicole on the support of slicer, however the inner structure is not simple to figure out. Sonia, independently developed a CLI application for NIFTI<->NRRD DTI conversion
