“Calculator” consists in a volumetric evaluation of kidney stones and also provides information on surgical duration. Moreover, it provides the estimated time of lithotripsy and consequently the operative time. It provides in a few seconds a 3D view of the stone(s) and axial, coronal and sagittal views with CT-scan DICOMs.

Module Description

Below, we describe the Instructions Guide to use Calculator:


  1. Open 3DSlicer and download “Calculator” using the “Extension Manager”
  2. Import DICOM data from a CT-scan (better with non-enhanced series)
  3. Open “Crop Volume” module
  * “Create a new annotation ROI” (Region Of Interest)
  * Size the ROI in x, y and z axes using axial (red), sagittal (yellow) and coronal (green) view in four-up disposition. 
  * Create a new volume (name will be: “name cropped”)
  * Click “Apply” button
  1. Open “Calculator” module:
  * Select volume: “name cropped”
  * Choose threshold (houndfields units) minimum and maximun to fit to the stone
  * If there are multiples stones select “split islands into segments” with a recommended “minimum size” of 40 voxels
  * Select a mode of treatment (laser source, core-diameter of laser fiber, laser settings and stone type)
  * Select “show 3D” if you want to visualize in 3D-view the segmented stone(s)
  * Click “Apply” button. A table will appear to show the segment’s name, volume (mm3) and time of lithotripsy (min)
