### Meeting Notes #### Support of NM DICOM with negative spacing There is an ongoing discussion regarding the handling of negative spacing in Nuclear Medicine (NM) DICOM images, particularly for Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT). A key question is whether the GDCM library should check for SPECT modality and allow negative spacing values. **Short-term plan:** - Provide a detailed summary of the current challenges and ongoing discussions. - Develop a Slicer-specific solution to address the regression before the upcoming Slicer release. **Related issues:** - [Slicer Issue #7937](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/issues/7937) - [ITK Issue #4794](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITK/issues/4794) - [ITK PR #4521](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITK/pull/4521) #### Telemetry There are updates related to the Telemetry Extension, including a pull request for the `Slicer/slicer-usage-stats` repository. Additional work is needed to submit a PR to the `Slicer/SlicerTelemetry` repository. **Relevant Links:** - [Flask application for telemetry](https://github.com/BerDom-Ing/Slicer-Telemetry/tree/main) - [Front-end usage statistics](https://github.com/BerDom-Ing/slicer-usage-stats/tree/telemetry-stats) - [Slicer telemetry extension](https://github.com/BerDom-Ing/SlicerTelemetry) --- _[View the full topic](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/2024-09-24-weekly-meeting/38505)._
