Cardiac segmentation and CT Volume Rendering, February 2008
Using data and segmentations from the collaboration with Boston Children's Hospital Pediatric Cardiology.Partial image update using OpenIGTLink, February 2008
OpenIGTLink allows an external imaging scanner (Ultrasound/CT/MR) to update part of a volume, which has already been loaded on the Slicer. This is helpful if the imaging plane sweeps the subject, and images are transfered to the Slicer on-the-fly.The First MRML node rendering using CUDA February 2008

About the VisualBlog
The VisualBlog is meant to be an easy place to upload screenshot so that both developers and outside observes can track the progress of the project.
Many thanks to developers and users for contributing their images here.
