- To create an extension that allows surgeons to create 3D models and plan liver resection surgeries.
- This extension will contain modules for segmenting parts of the liver (parenchyma, tumours, portal and hepatic veins), as well as a module for creating a resection plan in the resulting 3D model.
|
- Possible need for special type of model node when importing / saving data? (have a vtkMRMLResectionSurfaceNode, which will contain a list of control points for the resection surface)
- Refactoring current modules to improve code and fit into extensions structure
|
- Using VTK field data to store / retrieve extra information for resection surfaces
- Structure in place for loading / saving resection surfaces (resectionSurfaceNodes inheriting from modelNode, reader, registering IO...)
Fruitful discussions:
- Learnt more about options for customizing Slicer
- Plan to use SegmentationNode to solve issues with needing to load many models
- Feedback on modules, should try to generalize the vessel segmentation to be usable on other images (not just contrast enhanced CT of the liver)
