> Hi rather new to Slicer and have two general questions. I have two scripted modules that share common information. So is there a way I can load this information for one module and it gets automatically uploads to the other script?

In general, modules share all data via the MRML scene and communicate via node modified events. You can also call another module’s logic objects, which is useful when one module uses algorithms implemented in the other. See more details in this tutorial: [https://github.com/PerkLab/PerkLabBootcamp/blob/master/Doc/day3\_2\_SlicerProgramming.pptx?raw=true](https://github.com/PerkLab/PerkLabBootcamp/blob/master/Doc/day3_2_SlicerProgramming.pptx?raw=true)

Yes, this is available in Segment Statistics module. See details here: [New Segment Statistics: Oriented Bounding Box, Diameter and More](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/new-segment-statistics-oriented-bounding-box-diameter-and-more/10203)
