Welcome to the 3D Slicer Wiki pages !

How to use this site:

  • The Slicer Web pages provide a guided tour to the application, training materials, and the development community. New users should start there because we try to keep it organized and up to date.
  • These wiki pages are more free-form, with notes and reference pages that help support developers and users across multiple sites. You will find good information on the wiki, but it's possible that it's out of date or describes features that are still in the planning phase.
  • From the Slicer 4 visual blog. For more, see here.

  • MultiVolumeExplorer module has been updated for 4.3.1 release to include the capability to plot multivolume pixel values from 2 multivolumes at the same time. This feature is particularly helpful while visualizing the results of model fits, such as those produced by the updated PkModeling extension.

  • A new extension allows to run matlab scripts without having to recompile Slicer. For more information see here

  • Extension Manager, the slicer multiplatform Appstore is open for business and free. 

  • Fibers colored by their mean orientation is now available in the Tractography Display module

  • SlicerRT 0.10 has been released! SlicerRT is 3D Slicer with extensions for radiotherapy research, which is developed by SparKit project with the contributions from Slicer community.



3D Slicer is:

  • A software platform for the analysis (including registration and interactive segmentation) and visualization (including volume rendering) of medical images and for research in image guided therapy.
  • A free, open source software available on multiple operating systems: Linux, MacOSX and Windows
  • Extensible, with powerful plug-in capabilities for adding algorithms and applications.

Features include:

  • Multi organ: from head to toe.
  • Support for multi-modality imaging including, MRI, CT, US, nuclear medicine, and microscopy.
  • Bidirectional interface for devices.

There is no restriction on use, but Slicer is not approved for clinical use and intended for research. Permissions and compliance with applicable rules are the responsibility of the user. For details on the license see here

  • Thanks to the stewardship of Isaiah Norton and the kindness of the Discourse organization, Slicer forum is graciously hosted under the condition we keep the word "discourse" in the URL: https://discourse.slicer.org
  • A group of Slicer community members have extensively discussed the advantages of an updated forum software, and developed a consensus at the 24th Project Week that we test Discourse as a new home for questions and discussion by users and developers of Slicer and any extension/topical communities who are interested.

November

  • Slicer 4.0 released in November 2011.

  • Over 200 attendees at training events in two 90 minute training sessions.

August

  • Slicer3 development trunk (and nightly builds) have changed over to Tcl 8.5 and cmake 2.8.5 in order to address some issues with ubuntu 11.04.
  • Plans are in place to release slicer4 at RSNA 2011 (end of November). Developers are actively working on making that a usable and feature rich release.

March

  • Slicer3.6.3 Patch Released on March 4th, 2011.

February

  • A very productive CTK Hackfest made significant progress on new dicom interoperability features that will be a key part of slicer4.

January

2010

October

  • Our friends and colleagues at UFP in Barcelona, Spain have released version 1.2 of the Gimias application. This new version includes an interface so that Gimias can discover and execute slicer command line modules to operate on data loaded in Gimias.

September

  • The first alpha versions of Slicer4 (the Qt version) are starting to become available. Contact the slicer-devel list if you want access to a binary installer for testing.
  • A video has been nominated for official slicer bug fixing anthem ;)

  • Seb Barre from Kitware has taken the lead in adding multiple cameras support to Slicer 3. The work is currently focused on multiple cameras and multiple views, but only one scene. The nightly build contains a new module, called cameras. Jim Miller has added a new layout, called Dual 3D Layout.

    • Dual 3D layout.

    • Several bug fixes are being rolled into a 3.4.1 patch release, expected for beginning of August.

    March

    • Development of slicer3.4 is still under way. To check the status, go to the bug tracker and search for the tag "3.4 Targeted fix". Our plan is to fix anything with that tag before branching the release. http://na-mic.org/Mantis/main_page.php The svn trunk for slicer3 is still in "feature freeze" mode, meaning that only fixes should be checked in. Any new development should occur in svn branches for now.
    • Developers, please be sure to apply the "3.4 Targeted fix" to anything you are working on for the release.

    January

    • A product release of Slicer 3.4 is scheduled for Feb/March
    • There will be a code freeze on Feb 4, 2009
    • Slicer3 and related research project were highlighted and demoed as part of the External Advisory Board meeting of the Neuroimage Analysis Center.

    September

    • Andras Jakab won second place in Kitware's medical image visualization contest!. The image combines slice viewing, models, volume rendering, and tractography applied to a gamma knife neurooncology radiotherapy planning case. Andras used slicer's registration tools to fuse CT and diffusion MR into a multimodal scene.

    • Andras Jakab's award winning slicer image.

    • A NA-MIC Workshop at MICCAI addressed the creation of ITK-based command line modules for 3D Slicer.
    • Slicer user Attila Nagy presented on Slicer3 for inner ear imaging (Slides - Hungarian)
    • Attila also provided patches to build Slicer3 and most of Slicer2 using the latest versions of Solaris and the optimized Sun C++ compilers.
