Welcome to the SlicerAstro wiki!


Intro

A pre-Alpha release of SlicerAstro, an (unofficial, for the moment) extension of 3-DSlicer is available here: https://github.com/Punzo/SlicerAstro/releases/tag/Alpha-Linux

SlicerAstro, at the moment, enables the loading of fits file and display of Astronomical World Coordinates in 3-DSlicer. The pre-alpha-release is meant to be temporary. As soon as more (stable) features will be added to SlicerAstro, it will be released officially as a 3-DSlicer extension.

For general information about 3-DSlicer and tutorials we refer to

The interface

For information about the GUI and the navigation, we refer to the Slicer documentation:

Markups and crosshair are also very useful tools. Please, check the following links:

Modules description

Documentation for the Slicer modules is available at the following link: http://slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation/4.5#Modules_by_name

Proper documentation for SlicerAstro modules is not available at the moment, but please check:
https://github.com/Punzo/SlicerAstro/wiki/SlicerAstroModules

Warning: only few of them are available in the pre-alpha release https://github.com/Punzo/SlicerAstro/releases/tag/Alpha-Linux (all the medical medical images analysis modules has been removed).

Python interactor:

It is a very useful util to access run-time the Slicer classes (e.g. the data of the fits file are stored in the AstroVolume class).
