How to retrieve multiple Sequence browser names with python

Support

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to retrieve every sequence browser names using python. Considering I have multiple sequence browser :
image
I would like to retrieve an array containing : SequenceBrowser_1, SequenceBrowser_2, etc
I’m not sure which API to use.

Thanks in advance!

Hi. You should use
nodes = slicer.util.getNodesByClass("vtkMRMLSequenceBrowserNode")

Please let me know if that works

I’ve been looking into the api of vtkMRMLSequenceBrowserNode,
I’m now trying to retrieve the sequence nodes associated with the sequence browser.
E.g:
image
I want to retrieve ThorasicSeq_1_Scans and ThorasicSeq_1_Tracker, do you know a way to do it?

I’m able to retrieve ThorasicSeq_1_Scans by using GetMasterSequenceNode but how do I retrieve every sequence nodes of the current SequenceBrowser?

Here’s the information that I have when printing the sequence browser:

The function is GetSynchronizedSequenceNodes.
Slicer: vtkMRMLSequenceBrowserNode Class Reference

collection = vtk.vtkCollection()
sequenceBrowserNode.GetSynchronizedSequenceNodes(collection, True)
for i in range(collection.GetNumberOfItems()):
   sequenceNode = collection.GetItemAsObject(i)
