Module Description

The PatientHierarchy module manages all data that has been loaded from DICOM.

Use Cases

  • Load DICOM data and need to see in the same hierarchy
  • Add external data to patient hierarchy
  • Transform whole study (coming soon)
  • Export DICOM data (coming soon)
  • Create contour from labelmap or model
  • Easily show study in views
  • Edit DICOM tags (coming soon)

Tutorials

None specifically for Patient Hierarchy yet

How to

Create contour from scratch
In Contours module select 'Create new Contour' in the contour selector drop-down to create a new contour
In Patient Hierarchy module drag&drop new contour from 'Potential patient hierarchy nodes' list to under a structure set in the tree
The default representation is an empty Ribbon model. It can be converted to Indexed labelmap in the Contours module and then the labelmap can be edited in the Editor module
Create contour from labelmap volume or model
In Patient Hierarchy module drag&drop the existing representation (labelmap or model) from 'Potential patient hierarchy nodes' list to under a structure set in the tree. This way an encapsulating Contour node gets created and associated to the corresponding color table
Create new generic Patient hierarchy node from scratch
Right-click on an existing node and select 'Create generic child node'. The level of the child node will be one under the parent node if available (e.g. 'Patient' -> 'Study', 'Subseries' -> 'Subseries').
Create new Structure set from scratch
Right-click on an existing Study node and select 'Create child structure set'. This menu item is only available for Study level nodes
Create new Patient from scratch
Right-click on the top-level item 'Scene' and select 'Create new patient'
Rename Patient hierarchy node
Right-click on the node and select 'Rename'
Deform structure set using a transform (registration result)
Bulk resampling not implemented yet :(
Patient hierarchy module GUI

Panels and their use

Patient hierarchy tree (top)
Contains all the objects in the Patient hierarchy in a tree representation.
The only items that exist in the tree before importing any data are the default structure set and its corresponding color table, which facilitates Contour node creation without having any DICOM data imported
MRML Node Inspector (closed drop-down panel under the tree)
Displays the attributes of the currently selected Patient hierarchy node. Can be edited by double-clicking on an attribute name or value
Potential patient hierarchy nodes list
List of nodes that are currently outside the patient hierarchy, but can be added. Nodes are listed in this list if there is at least one plugin that can do the adding of that node.
