Projects

Visualization Toolkit

The Visualization ToolKit (VTK) is an open source, freely available software system for 3D computer graphics, image processing, and visualization used by thousands of researchers and developers around the world. VTK consists of a C++ class library, and several interpreted interface layers including ... [More] Tcl/Tk, Java, and Python. Professional support and products for VTK are provided by Kitware, Inc. [Less]

ParaView

ParaView is an application designed with the need to visualize large data sets in mind. The goals of the ParaView project include an open-source, multi-platform visualization application that support distributed computation models to process large data sets. It has an open, flexible, and intuitive ... [More] user interface and is based on open standards architecture. [Less]

GDCM

Grassroots DiCoM is a C++ library for dealing with DICOM medical files. It is automatically wrapped to python, java, C#, perl (using swig). It supports RAW, JPEG, J2K, JPEG lossless, RLE and deflated (zlib). It also comes with DICOM Part 3,6 & 7 of the standard as XML files. It supports basic ... [More] network functionalities: C-ECHO, C-STORE, C-FIND and C-MOVE [Less]

OsiriX

OsiriX is an image processing software dedicated to DICOM images (".dcm" / ".DCM" extension) produced by medical equipment (MRI, CT, PET, PET-CT, ...) and confocal microscopy (LSM and BioRAD-PIC format). It can also read many other file formats: TIFF (8,16, 32 bits), JPEG, PDF ... [More] , AVI, MPEG and Quicktime. It is fully compliant with the DICOM standard for image comunication and image file formats. OsiriX is able to receive images transferred by DICOM communication protocol from any PACS or medical imaging modality (STORE SCP - Service Class Provider, STORE SCU - Service Class User, and Query/Retrieve) .

Slicer

The 3D Slicer is freely available, open-source software for visualization, registration, segmentation, and quantification of medical data. See also the Slicer4 Ohloh project for info on the most recent version (porting to Qt and other improvements).

Slicer4

The ultimate 3D Segmentation, Registration and Visualization System - now as a QT application!

The Common Toolkit

The Common Toolkit (CTK) contains a collection of Qt based widgets for GUI development. Some advanced widgets handle DICOM(DCMTK), scripting (PythonQt) or VTK. In addition to widgets, CTK offers different development solutions such as a plugin framework, an automatic Qt testing framework and ... [More] software management(useful CMake macros). The goals of CTK are as follows: * Provide a unified set of basic programming constructs that are useful for medical imaging applications development * Facilitate the exchange and combination of code and data * Document, integrate, and adapt successful solutions * Avoid the duplication of code and data * Continuously extend to new tasks within the scope of the toolkit (medical imaging) without burdening existing tasks [Less]

MITK

The Medical Imaging Interaction Toolkit (MITK) is a free software library with the aim of simplifying the development of interactive medical image processing programs. Through enhanced combinability and reusability of interactive components as well as the avoidance of redundant developments, an ... [More] improved level of software quality is achieved with less time required for development. MITK is based on the toolkits ITK and VTK, reusing not only their libraries but also the design principles realized in them as well. The aim is to not invent anything that already exists and only to add any given functionality that is required for interactive medical image processing systems and that is not included in the scope defined for the basic toolkit.

DeVIDE

DeVIDE, or the Delft Visualisation and Image processing Development Environment, is a cross-platform software framework for the rapid prototyping, testing and deployment of visualisation and image processing algorithms. The software was developed within the Visualisation group. DeVIDE's primary ... [More] (and currently only) front-end is a data-flow boxes-and-lines network editor. In this regard, it is very similar to AVS, OpenDX, Khoros or VISSION. DeVIDE integrates functionality from libraries such as VTK, ITK, GDCM, DCMTK, numpy and matplotlib. It is being very actively developed. [Less]

BioImageXD

BioImageXD - free open source software for analysis, processing and 3D rendering of multi dimensional microscopy images. BioImageXD is a collaborative open source free software project, designed and developed by microscopists, cell biologists and programmers from the Universities of Jyväskylä ... [More] and Turku in Finland, Max Planck Institute CBG, Dresden, Germany and collaborators worldwide. [Less]
