I’m working on projectile wound trajectory tracking in the brain using DICOM CT in Slicer. I wonder if there is a module / that allows 3D Slicer tracking to establish possible projectile routes

That sounds interesting and doable, but I don’t think anyone has done work in that area exactly. There has been some [TBI research](https://www.slicer.org/w/img_auth.php/d/de/TBISegmentation_tutorial.pdf) and an [interesting analysis of Phineas Gage](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3353935/).
