Sliceomatic

19 Sep 2001 (Updated 18 Nov 2008)

Volume slice visualization gui

File Information
Description	GUI for manipulating slices and isosurfaces over a volume. Control over color transparency, contours, and rendering techniques via menus. Original sliceomatic 1.0 for older versions of MATLAB is in the zip file.
Acknowledgements	This submission has inspired the following: MRI Brain Segmentation, Video tutorial: Practical Example: Datacloud
MATLAB release	MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1)
Other requirements	A good OpenGL hardware card is quite useful.

25 Nov 2001	James Halmer	I dont understand it
26 Nov 2001	Evan Westwood	Excellent way to look at 3-D data and a great template for learning about how to image 3-D data in Matlab. Note that right-clicking on arrows or surfaces to get the contextmenu options only works if you have nothing checked in the uppermost section of the figure's Tools menu.

30 Jan 2002	G	excellent, especially due to lack of alternatives.
26 Mar 2002	Chris	A VERY nice tool for quickly surveying a 3-d dataset. I found the interface intuitive as well. One question though...Am I missing a way to remove slices from the display once they are created?

09 Dec 2002	Peter Kraal	very nice tool! very handy for soil profiles I must say. too bad axis dimensions are hard to edit. tip: for good isosurfaces, replace all 'unwanted' values with the same value.
13 Jan 2003	maurizio fedi	Fantastic tool to manage 3D data. only a problem: why one cannot use actual coordinates?
10 Apr 2003	Dhaval Shah	very good tool.
27 Jun 2003	Adam van Eekeren	Nice tool to look at 3D-data! Only one concern: it is possible to place a slice controller outside a slice...by doing that, it is not possible to remove it anymore!
01 Oct 2003	Gordon Cooper	This is excellent ! We have incorporated it into our geophysics teaching.
09 Oct 2003	Marco Cannella	Fantastic. You can analize 3D data in a fast and simple way.
29 Dec 2003	Jimmy Pagel	Great code! just one request: can you please add a way to remove a slice as well.
07 Feb 2004	Andreas Loesch	Great :) one wish: show the gradient in the field (quiverplot or something like that) @Jimmy -> the right mouse button on the Arrow is your frient
05 May 2004	Torbjørn Hergum	A great tool - for as long as it works. It frequently crashes matlab with a "segmentation fault". I'm running matlab on Linux RedHat 9.
23 Jun 2004	Binevia karoly	great but all the time crashes, that's unbeliveble, the author should try harder...
23 Jul 2004	Krishnakumar Venkateswaran	This is a great tool. Excellent tool for people like me who work on confocal imaging. Works for me without any problem.
15 Sep 2004	senthil kumar	IT IS VERY USFULL FOR ALL SIMULATION PURPOSE
23 Nov 2004	Shira Rubin	This is a fantastic tool! But - how is it possible to use the actual coordinates of the data? This would really make it perfect.
23 Dec 2004	Fu-Sung Wang	I'm impressed by this great demonstration.
16 Mar 2005	Jesper Pedersen	Nice GUI and program. However, it is very, very annoying that one cannot use the actual coordinates of the data.
18 Mar 2005	Jesper Pedersen	I have to re-rate this piece of software. It is fantastic, and in a newer version it is in fact possible to use the actual coordinates of the data.
29 Jun 2005	Vinay D	Very handy
25 Aug 2005	Larry Velasco	Thanks to the Sliceomatic people.. This software is great, it has helped me a lot for my PHD, where I have been working with FEM aand FDTD ... I now can visualise all my 3D data in a very good way.. Thanks a lot,
18 Oct 2005	Mirza Kamaludeen	This is an excellent tool, which can be used to compare results obtained from sterelogy
07 Nov 2005	Ibon Bustinduy	An improved version is available here: http://gtts.ehu.es:8080/Ibon/ISIS/sliceomatic_ibon.zip Works fine in Matlab 7.1 (In both Windows and Unix OS). Once downloaded just type doc sliceomatic to obtain more information. Thanks A LOT. Eric Ludlam
11 Dec 2005	Nick Clark	This is awsome! Helping me no end with FTDT acoustic simulation
11 Dec 2005	Nick Clark	FDTD sorry - long day :)
04 Mar 2006	Matt Crema	Really great interactive tool for quick exploration of volume data. Thanks.
11 May 2006	Vinay D	very useful
07 Jul 2006	Daniel Simões-Lopes	Althogth it's not bug-free, suits me well! A very nice GUI application for volume visualization.
26 Jul 2006	Dinesh Appya	useful tool for volume data
29 Sep 2006	Yashavantha BS	very useful tool..
29 Sep 2006	John Franklin	Fantastic work! This is pretty slick. I was going to complain about the interface taking up too much room, but then I noticed the option to remove interface visibility and the ability to copy to a "clean" figure. Really nice.
14 Nov 2006	vinay pai
21 Apr 2007	andi setiawan	very good
14 Jan 2008	Ruwan Ranaweera	great work!
26 Jan 2008	Liu Xuefeng	excellent
30 Aug 2008	Chau Tran Kim	Wonderful
03 Dec 2008	Jim Haras	i have a series of mri silces, dicom files , and i want to import them. is this possible? if so, a little how-to guide would certainly be appreciated.
