Extensions

Introduction

  • Slicer Extensions are the "on-ramp" to the Slicer "highway". They provide are a mechanism for anybody, including third parties, to provide modules which extend the functionality of 3d Slicer.
  • Beginning with Slicer 4, the process for adding modules to slicer will begin with all modules as extensions. In order to become part of the main slicer distribution, extensions will have to be distributed under the slicer license, live up to the claims in the documentation, being stable on the supported platforms, well documented and supported.
  • While the Slicer license is suggested for extensions, it is not required. Please review the documentation of the extension carefully.
  • For a subset of extensions, you can use the extension wizard in Slicer to find their webpages and to install/uninstall individual extensions.
  • In case of problems with extensions, please talk directly to the developers of the extensions.
  • Information for developers can be found here.
