Welcome to the 3D Slicer Wiki pages!

Welcome to the Slicer Wiki Home Page.

How to use this site:

  • The main slicer.org pages provide a guided tour to the application, training materials, and the development community. New users should start there because we try to keep it organized and up to date.
  • These wiki pages are more free-form, with notes and reference pages that help support developers and users across multiple sites. You will find good information on the wiki, but it's possible that it's out of date or describes features that are still in the planning phase.

In a nutshell, Slicer3 is:

  • A cross-platform end user application for analyzing and visualizing medical images.
  • A collection of Open Source libraries for developing and deploying new image computing technologies.
  • Intended to replace the venerable Slicer2 (see information on the transition)
  • An algorithm development platform with a powerful new Execution Model to facilitate creation of new modules.

News

  • July 2009
    • Several bug fixes are being rolled into a 3.4.1 patch release, expected for beginning of August
  • June 2009
  • May 2009
  • March 2009
    • Development of slicer3.4 is still under way. To check the status, go to the bug tracker and search for the tag "3.4 Targeted fix". Our plan is to fix anything with that tag before branching the release. http://na-mic.org/Mantis/main_page.php The svn trunk for slicer3 is still in "feature freeze" mode, meaning that only fixes should be checked in. Any new development should occur in svn branches for now.
    • Developers, please be sure to apply the "3.4 Targeted fix" to anything you are working on for the release.
  • January 2009
    • A product release of Slicer 3.4 is scheduled for Feb/March
    • There will be a code freeze on Feb 4, 2009
    • Slicer3 and related research project were highlighted and demoed as part of the External Advisory Board meeting of the Neuroimage Analysis Center.

    • Andras Jakab won second place in Kitware's medical image visualization contest!. The image combines slice viewing, models, volume rendering, and tractography applied to a gamma knife neurooncology radiotherapy planning case. Andras used slicer's registration tools to fuse CT and diffusion MR into a multimodal scene.
Andras Jakab's award winning slicer image.
