I have gotten behind in posting news, but we've been busy! Thanks to our outstanding collaborators, we have been extremely successful in winning NIH and DoD grants on a variety of topics. VTK is receiving dedicated funding for the first time in its 20 year history. Dr. Marc Niethammer (UNC) has been leading the development of a geometric metamorphosis algorithm and a sliding-organ registration algorithm that are featured in proposals for traumatic brain injury assessment (with UCLA/USC) and longitudinal lung nodule monitoring (with UPitt and RIT). Our Bender application for anatomic morphing has also received new funding from the AFRL. The details on the grant awards are as follow:
NIH/NIBIB 1R01EB014955-01 (S. Aylward, B. Geveci, W. Schroeder)4/1/2013 – 3/30/2017The proposed studies seek to continue the development of the Visualization Toolkit (VTK). These studies will allow for the representation of large data and visualization via web and mobile platforms as well as maintain and, perhaps, increase the VTK user community.
