RSNA2015 3D Visualization Course

The 3D Visualization of DICOM Images for Radiological Applications course will be offered by the Neuroimage Analysis Center (NAC), at the 101st Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2015). As part of the outreach mission of this NIH funded National Center, we have developed an offering of freely available, multi-platforms open source software to enable medical image analysis research. The 3D Visualization course with pre-computed datasets aim to introduce translational clinical scientists to the basics of viewing and interacting in 3D with DICOM volumes and anatomical models using the 3DSlicer software. The course uses the Slicer4 version 5 software. For additional training materials on the software, please visit the 3D Slicer Compendium. Course datasets: 3DVisualization_DICOM_images_part1.zip and 3DVisualization_DICOM_images_part2.zip
