Introduction

Slicer is a software platform for image visualization and processing. In general, it is recommended to use computers with enough memory and graphics capabilities.

  • Precompiled versions 64bit of Slicer 4.0 are available for Windows7, Linux, and Mac OS X.
  • Main memory should be more than 4GB (8 recommended)
