Slicer-IGT/NeuroNav Slicer3

Introduction

NeuroNav is a loadable module for Slicer3. It's designed and implemented for neurosurgical navigation.

Workflow

Tracking device -> IGSTK -> OpenIGTLink network protocol -> OpenIGTLink module (Slicer3) -> NeuroNav module (Slicer3)

1. IGSTK acquires data from tracking device.
2. The tracking data sets are sent to Slicer3 through OpenIGTLink protocol.
3. OpenIGTLink module in Slicer3 decodes the tracking data.
4. NeuroNav module in Slicer3 performs navigation based on the tracking data.

Registration Tab

A patient to image registration is required before navigation. Landmark registration method is currently supported.
