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 the 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 You will find good information on the wiki, but it's possible that it's out of date or describes features that are still in the planning phase.

  • An algorithm development platform with a powerful new Execution Model to facilitate creation of new modules.
