1 | -InVesalius is a free 3D Medical Reconstruction Software that encourages 3D | ||
2 | -visualization and rapid prototyping based on 2D CT DICOM files. | ||
3 | - | ||
4 | -All documentation is in the "docs" directory and online at | ||
5 | ---- TODO: HTTP ---. If you're just getting started, here's | ||
6 | -how we recommend you read the docs: | ||
7 | - | ||
8 | - * First, read docs/intro/install.txt for instructions on installing InVesalius. | ||
9 | - | ||
10 | - * Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/intro/tutorial01.txt, | ||
11 | - docs/intro/tutorial02.txt, etc.). | ||
12 | - | ||
13 | - * You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in docs/topics) | ||
14 | - next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in docs/howto) for specific | ||
15 | - problems, and check out the reference (docs/ref) for gory details. | ||
16 | - | ||
17 | -Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think they | ||
18 | -should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a ticket | ||
19 | -here: | ||

31 | -To contribute to InVesalius: | ||
32 | - | ||
33 | - * Check out --- TODO: HTTP ---/community/ for information | ||
34 | - about getting involved. | 1 | +InVesalius generates 3D medical imaging reconstructions based on a sequence of 2D DICOM files acquired with CT or MRI equipments. InVesalius is internationalized (currently available in English, Portuguese, French and Spanish), multi-platform (GNU Linux, Windows and MacOS) and provides several tools: |
2 | + * DICOM-support including: (a) ACR-NEMA version 1 and 2; (b) DICOM version 3.0 (including various encodings of JPEG -lossless and lossy-, RLE) | ||
3 | + * Image manipulation facilities (zoom, pan, rotation, brightness/contrast, etc) | ||
4 | + * Segmentation based on 2D slices | ||
5 | + * Pre-defined threshold ranges according to tissue of interest | ||
6 | + * Edition tools (similar to Paint Brush) based on 2D slices | ||
7 | + * 3D surface creation | ||
8 | + * 3D surface connectivity tools | ||
9 | + * 3D surface exportation (including: binary STL, OBJ, VRML, Inventor) | ||
10 | + * High-quality volume rendering projection | ||
11 | + * Pre-defined volume rendering presets | ||
12 | + * Volume rendering crop plane | ||
13 | + * Picture exportation (including: BMP, TIFF, JPG, PostScript, POV-Ray) |
