Slicer 3.2

Slicer 3.2, a major release of the Slicer software platform, is scheduled for release on Friday, May 30, 2008. The new release contains hundreds of changes to the software. Highlights include:

  • Improved Multi-platform support and availability of pre-compiled binaries for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux
  • New ways to display, interact and record complex visualizations of cross-sectional and deried data
  • Advanced data fusion and registration capabilities
  • Segmentation tools
  • Support for complex data such as DTI
  • Interfaces to informatics frameworks

Click here to download different versions of Slicer3 and find pointers to the source code, mailing lists and bug tracker. Please note that Slicer continues to be a research package and is not intended for clinical use. Testing of functionality is an ongoing activity with high priority, however, some features of Slicer3 are not fully tested.

Overview

  • Slicer v3.2 - New and Improved Feature Highlights

  • Volume Rendering: Fully integrated volume rendering with cropping for easy exploration of volumetric data

  • Implicit Slice Widget: An interactive tool for specifying oblique views (part of the VTK widget family).

  • The Lightbox: Functionality for displaying cross-sectional data in columns and rows.

  • Interactive Editor: This new module allows interactive segmentation with robust 2D and 3D algorithms

  • IO: Improved IO capabilities include support for DICOM, NRRD, NIFTI, Tiff, JPG, Freesurfer, FITS and a number of other formats

  • Glyphs on tracts:
    New Diffusion Imaging infrastructure includes
    dicom import
    gradient editor
    visualiztion

  • Remote Data Handling allows uploads and downloads from image informatics frameworks such as BIRN, and XNAT

  • OpenIGTLink interfaces to devices such as scanners, trackers, and robots

  • Result of combining affine and b-Spline registration
