Material presented at ITK tutorials

It includes multiple conferences such as:

• IEEE Visualization, October 2002, Boston
• SPIE Medical Imaging, February 2003, San Diego
• IEEE Visualization, October 2003, Seattle
• MICCAI November 2003, Montreal
• SPIE Medical Imaging, February 2004, San Diego

The material was usually can be covered in sessions of 90 minutes per presentation, or sometimes fasters, depending on how much coffee was served to the attendants.

• Getting Started I: Introduction to ITK. (HTML).



• Getting Started II: Using ITK with VTK.



• Getting Started III: ITK Architecture.



• Getting Started IV: ITK and GUIs (FLTK,QT).



• Getting Started V: Integrating ITK in your Application.



• Segmentation Methods Overview.



• Registration Methods Overview.



• Non-Rigid Registration Methods.



• Clinical Applications.



• Clinical Applications ITK+VTK.

Note that this material has evolved from one conference to another. The current state reflects the most recent presentation as well as the updated state of the toolkit.

The following is a link to the presentation of the Workshop on Open Source Software in Medical Applications held at MICCAI 2003.

Workshop on Open Source Software.

An overview of the developement process of ITK was presented at the Washington Computer Assisted Surgery meeting WashCAS in March 16 2004.

The following two documents introduce the fundamental concepts on Quaternions and the more relevant, but less known, Versors which are the best mathematical representation for rotations in 3D space. These tutorial are strongly recommended for anyone interested in doing rigid registration in 3D.
