ITK Version 4

This work is supported by ARRA funding from the NLM. The kick-off meeting for this project took place from June 28-July 2 2010 in Bethesda. A beta version of the software will be available by the end of March 2011. Bug fixes will continue to be contributed to the ITK version 3 code.

  • Improved ITK Wrapping
    • Particularly for Python
  • Addition of simple ITK layer
    • A matlab-like interface to ITK
  • Refactor for modularity
    • ITKCore, ITKRegistrationModule, and Optional Modules
  • Enhanced project management tools and software processes
    • Particularly to support module development, testing, and maintenance
  • Refactoring itk::FEM framework - V4
  • Improved DICOM support
    • Including communications with PACS
    • Support Streaming interface
    • Add filter to support Siemens MOSAIC images
