Who are we – historical • Pieper • MIT PhD (Media Lab, Plastic Surgery Simulation); 8 years MMS CTO (CT Segmentation, Surgery Systems); 5 years with Ron/SPL on Slicer, BIRN, NA-MIC, NAC, etc. • Kapur • MIT PhD (AI, segmentation); VTI/GE (Surgical Navigation); BWH (since Sept 2006) Executive Director of NCIGT, NA-MIC Core 6 Co-PI • Yarmarkovich • Moscow PhD (Dynamic Systems); Industry (AVS, Visualization, Analysis); ½ time NA-MIC, also Dental Modeling Startup • Pohl • MIT PhD (CSAIL, segmentation); Working part-time at BWH and part time for Isomics SBIR on ultrasound fusion • Lisle • PhD UCF (Simulation, Visualization); SGI Custom Consulting; VTK and Slicer for NIH Projects
What do we contribute – Core2 • Slicer Development • Slicer 2.x maintenance and training • Slicer 3 design and implementation • “Application Focus” in Core 2 • Communicate user needs to Cores 1 and 2 • Slicer as testing ground for NA-MIC Kit tools meant to be used in other applications • Synergistic with Dissemination Role
What do we contribute – Core6 • Getting the “NA-MIC Message” to a broader community • Workshops • Collaborations • Publications • Internal Dissemination • Helping the Alliance stay in sync
How do we fit with NA-MIC • Many, Many ties with NA-MIC Participants • SPL: NAC, mBIRN, fBIRN, NCIGT, R01s… • Collaborations: UIowa (funded), Northwestern (resubmission this round), Berkeley (1st submission this round), JHU (in planning stages) • SBIR, DARPA, NSF and other cross-site activities
2006 Review • Slicer3, Slicer3, Slicer3, … • Kickoff of Iowa Meshing Collaboration • Slicer2.6
2007 Plans • Slicer3 clean up, release, maintenance • Help Create Training Materials • End Users • Command Line Module Developers • Interactive Module Developers • Begin to disseminate Slicer3
Goals for Isomics in NA-MIC • Make the NA-MIC Kit a “must have” software package for any Medical Image Computing Developer/Researcher/User • Ensure NA-MIC Kit is suitable for use in clinically applicable medical products • Promote the NA-MIC Community as the leaders in Medical Image Computing
