Patrick has asked me to keep track of my questions (and answers, if I find them) during this process. I have 4 already and will continue to add to it.</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite">Can you tell me a bit more about the Annotation functionality if it isn't too much trouble.</blockquote><div><br></div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Sure, it is a web-based application written in HTML5 & canvas to annotate images using an ontology. We would like this app to be launchable from Midas for authorized users and save their annotations ( saved in XML) back to Midas. We plan to post-process this XML so users can search for annotations.</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Here are a couple of screen shots:</div><div><br></div><div><img height="527" width="652" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" id="c218a02b-9bba-4d33-ac01-16a32a7a11fc" src="cid:2589F928-659C-421E-B850-7B5CF564221B@sdsc.edu"></div><div><br></div><div><img height="528" width="652" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" id="60ba1c3f-f65f-4d5d-8b28-591248d2d15d" src="cid:47C4D330-49B1-460F-A5BA-D0D4D785C73E@sdsc.edu"></div><div><br><blockquote type="cite">Will you be visualizing slices or 3D volumes?</blockquote><div><br></div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>We have 3D volume data and also DICOM data files. The python script will convert the data in these files to encoded PNGs, slice by slice. Then annio will display the images and allow users to annotate.</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite">What kind of annotations will you be adding (points, lines, planes, region of interest, etc) ?</blockquote><div><br></div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>It currently can do point, circle, open and closed polygon annotations.</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"> Has this application already be written/deployed?</blockquote><div><br></div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I am working on it right now and hoping to demo it in 3 weeks for our yearly meeting...with the Midas part working (:</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>My first Midas question is about the HTML5/canvas application. Where do you see this being displayed? Is it something you would like to run in a separate tab/browser window that you'd link to via the annotate action, something you'd like to run within Midas but using the Midas default layout (so it would run in the central content pane within the Midas layout, the SubMainContent div, which is where the message was displayed in my example module), or within Midas but using a custom layout?</div></blockquote><div><br></div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Hmm, I was originally thinking #1 but all your options sound good. I think from the users' point of view, running inside Midas will be more intuitive for them. From Midas' perspective, which way is best? Which way is easiest?</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>
<div>Also, in case you weren't aware of this, we have a Python client library called Pydas for communicating with a Midas server instance.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Thank you for the info. Brian, who wrote the python processing script, has been using your Pydas library (:</div><div><br></div><div>cheers,</div><div>Mona</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span></div><div>
