===Slicer Development Basics===

Slicer is based on Vtk, a graphical library that provides a high-level interface to OpenGL and a pipeline mechanism to connect graphical filters. The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

Slicer 3 is the latest version of Slicer that has integrated within it features to make adding to Slicer easier than before. If you are new to Slicer, viewing slides on its [[Media: 2007_Slicer Architecture slides.ppt |architecture]] will familiarize you with its framework.

The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

Slicer 3 is the latest version of Slicer that has integrated within it features to make adding to Slicer easier than before. If you are new to Slicer, viewing slides on its [[Media: 2007_Slicer Architecture slides.ppt |architecture]] will familiarize you with its framework.

Slicer is based on Vtk, a graphical library that provides a high-level interface to OpenGL and a pipeline mechanism to connect graphical filters. The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

'''Slicer Development Basics'''

Slicer is based on Vtk, a graphical library that provides a high-level interface to OpenGL and a pipeline mechanism to connect graphical filters. The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

==Slicer User Orientation==
 

Slicer is free open source image analysis software with basic functionality that includes the abilities to interactively visualize images, manually edit, fuse or co-register data, automatically segment, analyze diffuse tensor imaging data, and visualize tracking information for image-guided procedures. Armed with these capabilities, researchers have used Slicer for many [http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/Slicer:Feedback applications].

Slicer was designed with an easy-to-adapt modular structure to enable development efforts around the world. Already, this development has made Slicer multifaceted, with interface capabilities to other research software including FreeSurfer, Matlab, Python, and Scirun.

'''Slicer Development Basics'''

Slicer is based on Vtk, a graphical library that provides a high-level interface to OpenGL and a pipeline mechanism to connect graphical filters. The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

Before getting started, recognize that developing code for Slicer involves understanding and abiding by[[Projects/slicerWeb:License | slicer license]] and acknowledgment considerations, including that all software and any associated materials should include an acknowledgement of the [[Projects/slicerWeb:NIH_Roadmap_Acknowledgment| NIH Roadmap]]. See a list of grants and their numbers to make other [[Projects/slicerWeb:Acknowledgments| acknowledgments]] that helped to fund your work.

Slicer 3 is the latest version of Slicer that has integrated within it features to make adding to Slicer easier than before. If you are new to Slicer, viewing slides on its [[Media: 2007_Slicer Architecture slides.ppt |architecture]] will familiarize you with its framework.

'''Slicer Development Basics'''

Slicer is based on Vtk, a graphical library that provides a high-level interface to OpenGL and a pipeline mechanism to connect graphical filters. The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

Slicer is free open source image analysis software with basic functionality that includes the abilities to interactively visualize images, manually edit, fuse or co-register data, automatically segment, analyze diffuse tensor imaging data, and visualize tracking information for image-guided procedures. Armed with these capabilities, researchers have used Slicer for many [http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/Slicer:Feedback applications].

Slicer was designed with an easy-to-adapt modular structure to enable development efforts around the world. Already, this development has made Slicer multifaceted, with interface capabilities to other research software including FreeSurfer, Matlab, Python, and Scirun.

Slicer is free open source image analysis software with basic functionality that includes the abilities to interactively visualize images, manually edit, fuse or co-register data, automatically segment, analyze diffuse tensor imaging data, and visualize tracking information for image-guided procedures. Armed with these capabilities, researchers have used Slicer for many [http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/Slicer:Feedback applications].

Slicer was designed with an easy-to-adapt modular structure to enable development efforts around the world. Already, this development has made Slicer multifaceted, with interface capabilities to other research software including FreeSurfer, Matlab, Python, and Scirun.

'''Slicer Development Basics'''

[[Image:Kubicki_2007_J Psychiatr Res.jpg|thumb|right|450 px|Example of ﬁber tracking. See [http://slicer.spl.harvard.edu/Special:PubDB_View?dspaceid=99 Kubicki et al J Psychiatr Res 2007]for more info.]]

Slicer is based on Vtk, a graphical library that provides a high-level interface to OpenGL and a pipeline mechanism to connect graphical filters. The library is implemented in C++ but provides a Tcl wrapper to instantiate and execute its methods. Tcl/Tk comprises the rest of 3D Slicer user interface and event handling.

Slicer software supports automatic testing and employs an extreme programming approach with nightly builds natively on multiple platforms. Recent accomplishments include added capability for plugging in external modules using XML-based command line interface.

Before getting started, recognize that developing code for Slicer involves understanding and abiding by[[Projects/slicerWeb:License | slicer license]] and acknowledgement considerations, including that all software and any associated materials should include an acknowledgement of the [[Projects/slicerWeb:NIH_Roadmap_acknowledgement| NIH Roadmap]]. See a list of grants and their numbers to make other [[Projects/slicerWeb:Acknowledgments| acknowledgements]] that helped to fund your work.

Slicer 3 is the latest version of Slicer that has integrated within it features to make adding to Slicer easier than before. If you are new to Slicer, viewing slides on its [[Media: 2007_Slicer Architecture slides.ppt |architecture]] will familiarize you with its framework.
