SimpleElastix Slicer Integration

Key Investigators

• Patrick Carnahan (Robarts Research Institute)

Project Description

Modify the SimpleElastix project to seperate it from the SimpleITK build and instead use SimpleITK as a SuperBuild dependency. SimpleElastix could then potentially be integrated into the SlicerElastix module to allow direct use of the Elastix registration filters from python.

Objective

1. Complete build configuration work to enable standalone python wrapping of elastix filters
2. Integrate building of SimpleElastix fork into SlicerElastix to allow for easy use within Slicer

Progress and Next Steps

• Removed all SimpleITK duplicate code from SimpleElastix
• Modified Swig configurations to allow dependency on SimpleITK
• SimpleElastix imported into Slicer and useable for registration
• Next steps are to work with core SimpleElastix developer on upstreaming the changes
