Slicer 4.0:Training

Slicer 4.0 Tutorials

Category	Steps Taken	Problems	Image
Core tutorial 1	Slicer3Minute Tutorial 1)open slicer. 2)opened data set. 3)rotated model. 4)clicked slice visibility icon (red). 5)turn skin opacity to 0.0. 6) clicked slice visibility icon (green). 7)clip the scull and bone exposing the white matter tissue. 8) move through the scan (green). 9)take visibility off white matter. 10) zoom in and out.	Slicer3Minute Data step 2) picture for tutorial is out of date.
Core tutorial 2	Slicer3Visualization Tutorial 1) open slicer. 2) parts of slicer. 3) load volume 001.dcm from dicom directory. 4) open module volumes. 5) using window/level slider. 6) open volume spgr.nhdr. 7) select red only layout from the choose view icon. 8) fit the image size to window. 9) click foreground icon and select the dicom image. 10)change display using the background/foreground icons. 11)use slider to display ventricles. 12) go back to standard view. PART 2 1) select volume file.	Slicer3Visualization Data step 2)edit tutorial no progress bar. step 3)a)slicer does not display the dicom header information, b) new tutorial image is needed c)click open not apply. step 5) new tutorial image is needed. step 11)scans improperly under (-30) (red) unsure if it is slicer or the selected data set. PART 2 step 1)the loading menu is missing, unable to do any more on this tutorial without it.
skip	Programming in Slicer3 Tutorial 1)open file "helloworld.xml" and "helloworld.cxx" and "Cmakelists.txt". 2)edit the file "Cmakelists.txt". 3)open the Cmake executable. Audience: Programmers and Engineers.	HelloWorld Plugin step 3) the tutorial shows the wrong location for the Cmake executable, it says "Slicer3-lib/CMake-build/bin" so i tried going through Slicer-4-libs but there is no CMake or build option.
skip	Hello Python Tutorial The Hello Python tutorial is an introduction to the integration of Python stand-alone programs outside of the Slicer3 source tree. Audience: Programmers and Engineers.	HelloPython Plugin The HelloPython tutorial dataset contains an MR scan of the brain and pre-computed xml and Python code for integrating the Hello Python plug-in to Slicer3.
