The SlicerSALT team is proud to announce that version 5.0 is now available for download. This release introduces new features as well as bug fixes for better performance and stability. This release of SlicerSALT includes a lot of features that concentrate in the visualization and analysis of sequential, 3D geometries (4D shape analysis). The development of SlicerSALT is supported by the NIH National Institute of Biomedical Imaging Bioengineering R01EB021391 (Shape Analysis Toolbox for Medical Image Computing Projects).
Shape Population Viewer module’s enhanced functionality for the visualization of 4D shapes. The user only needs to provide a folder containing meshes of the 4D objects, both boundary or skeletal representations. SPV’s interface includes controls that help animate through the sequence of 3D geometries.
Changelog
Features
Hierarchical Geodesic Modeling module, for the computation and visualization/analysis of longitudinal shape models using geodesic based shape modeling.
S-rep Hypothesis Testing module, for the calculation of hypothesis testing specially designed for the richer geometry captured by S-reps.
Surface Learner module, for the application of Deep Learning-based Image Classifiers on surface data without any coding.
Updated functionality in our Skeletal Representation modules, now including a way to serialize the computation of s-reps in a large dataset via the SlicerPipelines functionality.
Updated functionality in Shape Population Viewer, that allows the visualization of 4D geometries.
Fixes
Updates to the Registration Based Correspondence module, that now includes a way to customize the number of iterations needed for the correspondence establishment.
Crash fixes and stability
Fixes to windows packaging
Deprecation of Fortran and LAPACK
