Download Slicer for Users

Download and unpack the appropriate archive for your platform from Slicer2.5MGH: this link gives you a precompiled ready-to-use Slicer for Windows XP and Mac OS X 10.4 platforms.

If you are running Mac OS X 10.3, please upgrade your platform.

Installation

You can run the toplevel slicer executable from any directory, but if you want to install it as a system-wide package we suggest the following methods: mbolic link in /usr/local/bin pointing to the executable for your platform in the distribution directory

  • Windows: There is no windows installer, so you may put slicer in any convenient location and put a shortcut to the slicer2-win32.exe on your desktop.
  • Mac OS: No installation suggestions currently

Notes for Mac OS X Users

Note: See the top of this page for information on configuring your X server.

To run Slicer on the Mac, you need to have the X server and from an xterm run the slicer2-darwin-ppc executable at the top level of the unpacked archive.

If you want to customize the X11 Application menu to launch slicer, you can use a syntax like the following:

xterm -e /Users/pieper/slicer2.5/latest/slicer2/slicer2-darwin-ppc

Other notes on building and running on the Mac.

Note that Slicer relies on the X11 system and must be launched from within an xterm. More information about X11 on the mac.
