3D Slicer GUI¶
3D Slicer is an open-source software platform for medical image informatics, image processing, and three-dimensional visualization.
TorchIO provides a 3D Slicer extension for quick experimentation and visualization of the package features without any coding.
The TorchIO extension can be easily installed using the Extensions Manager.
The code and installation instructions are available on GitHub.
Note
The Preview version (built nightly) is recommended. You can download and install Slicer from their download website or, if you are on macOS, using Homebrew:
brew tap homebrew/cask-versions && brew cask install slicer-preview
TorchIO Transforms¶
This module can be used to quickly visualize the effect of each transform parameter. That way, users can have an intuitive feeling of what the output of a transform looks like without any coding at all.
Usage example¶
Go to the Sample Data
module to get an image we can use:
Click on an image to download, for example MRHead [1],
and go to the TorchIO Transforms
module:
Select the input and output volume nodes:
Modify the transform parameters and click on Apply transform
.
Hovering the mouse over the transforms will show tooltips extracted from the
TorchIO documentation.
You can click on the Toggle volumes
button to switch between input and
output volumes.
