Abstract

Because 3D Slicer has many applications in medical imaging and has high scalability, it has been studied by many people engaged in medical and development work. In order to facilitate the clinical use of 3D Slicer software in craniocerebral surgery, this article re-developed the graphical user interface (GUI) in the software. The development process can be divided into four steps: app, Qt and Visual Studio, software packaging and external modules. Through the application of Qt and Visual Studio, GUI can be built and modified to simplify the operation steps and operation interface, in order to meet the clinical use needs of doctors. At the same time, this paper demonstrates the operation results in the workflow, such as medical image fusion and neural bundle modeling.

Summary

Introduction

In this era of advanced technology, doctors hope to heal patients faster. The development of medical image processing technology enables doctors to diagnose and treat diseases faster and more accurately. 3D Slicer is a powerful, open source and free medical image processing software [1], suitable for the visualization of human organ images. There are problems with many operations and complicated interfaces, which cannot meet the rapidity requirements in clinical operations. In order to improve the utilization of 3D Slicer software in cranial surgery, this article re-developed the GUI of 3D Slicer and established the workflow of cranial surgery to optimize the operation steps and simplify the user interface
