2006 Summer PrWeek NA-MIC kit for non-medical data:Develop and test a FITS IO reader for ITK to allow astronomy data to be imported directly into Slicer. Plan/Expected Challenges/Publication Team Plan: Build simple ITK reader for FITS that imports a multi-dimensional data volume and associated metadata into ITK. Build in hooks to support interpretation of headers to provide world coordinate system conversion. Challenges: Handling dimensionless and non-rectilinear coordinate systems (although this issue can be deferred). Douglas Alan (Harvard IIC) (software) Michael Halle (BWH/IIC) (software) Luis Ibanez, Kitware (software) ?? Expected Date for Insight Journal Publication: September ‘06.. Accomplished by end of Programming Week ITK FITSIO now reads in multi-dimensional image from FITS file. Skeleton code for reading headers Still need physical to data unit conversion
