Introduction
The Slicer3 IGT tools are intended to enable research in image guided therapy. They leverage the Slicer environment and augment it with a number of IGT specific functionalities and modules. One key element of this capability is Open IGT link, a communication protocol to link 3D Slicer to a variety of devices.
Use-case scenario 1
- I am a neurosurgeon who is using the BrainLabs Navigation system. I would like to use Slicer to do some research in DTI visualization during procedures. What do I do?
- Haying Liu will list here the steps needed to be able to do this.
Use-case scenario 2
- I am a professor who wants to use Slicer to educate my students about the basics of robotics in IGT
- Danielle Pace will list here the steps needed to do this and will provide links to the current pages with in-depth documentation
List of devices that have been linked successfully
- Support medical tracking systems
- All devices interfaced to IGSTK (Noby inserts link), including
- Flashpoint (Image Guided Technologies, Boulder, CO)
- Robin Medical
- scanners (Noby: which ones)
- robots (Noby which ones)
- IGT Modules in Slicer 3.3
Only what is in Slicer 3.3 nightly!
