To install, do the following until the extensions are available through the wizard in Slicer4:
 
 
git clone https://haehn@github.com/haehn/VMTK-in-3D-Slicer.git
 
cd VMTK-in-3D-Slicer
 
mkdir SlicerVmtk4-build
 
cd SlicerVmtk4-build
 
ccmake -DSlicer_DIR:PATH=/path/to/Slicer4-Superbuild/Slicer-build ../SlicerVmtk4
 
make -j 4
 
/path/to/Slicer4-Superbuild/Slicer-build/Slicer --add-loadable-extension-path SlicerVmtk4 "/path/to/SlicerVmtk4-build"
 
 
 
The VMTK libraries get fetched through a Superbuild External mechanism.
 
 
2)
 
 
For now, the SlicerVmtk4/Modules/ sub-directory has to be copied to /path/to/Slicer4/QTScriptedModules/.
 
 
Then, it has to be added to /path/to/Slicer4/QTScriptedModules/CMakeLists.txt like this:
 
 
ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(Modules)
 
 
 
Cheers!

Vascular Modeling Toolkit (VMTK) in 3D Slicer 4

VMTK is available through the extension manager for 3D Slicer from version 4.6.2. Main difference to the Slicer3 version is that now all VMTK modules come as one extension bundle. This should enhance the installation experience for users.

Also, the general focus was on enhancing the usability of the modules by providing parameter-free simple modes in addition to full-blown advanced modes.

Installation

The current snapshot of SlicerVmtk4 can be installed as follows until the proper extension infrastructure is ready for Slicer4:

Video Teaser

We have a video showing the new enhanced usability: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ2032yo5Co

New webpage

Thanks to Luca, we have a new website (still under development): http://slicer.vmtk.org
