Transcript The Canine Muscle Atlas Project - Interactive Canine Pelvic Limb

The Canine Muscle Atlas Project
Loading, Viewing, and Interacting
with the Canine Muscle Atlas
3D model
Getting started
• Download the MuscleAtlas3Dmodel.zip file.
– Extract all files and note where they are saved
• Download and install the latest stable release
of 3D Slicer from:
http://slicer.org/pages/Special:SlicerDownloads
– 3D Slicer is large and the download time will depend on
the connectivity method
– Open the 3D Slicer program
Click “File” and select “Load Scene”
Find the folder containing the files that you
downloaded and unzipped.
Open the CanineMuscleAtlas.mrml file
(ignore the _CanineMuscle.mrml file)
The skeletal model should automatically
display with the right limb muscles
displayed; this may take a few minutes
Reorienting the model
To move the
model in real
time, click on the
3D display window
and drag the
mouse
Clicking on
the axis labels
will result in
standardized
orthogonal
views
To move the
model
incrementally,
click on these
buttons with the
to change the
pitch, roll, or yaw
Changing the display window
To change the
background
color,
hide the 3D cube
or hide the 3D
axis labels, select
the pop-ups
activated by
clicking the eye.
Changing the structures on display
Click on the stack
of cameras to
select muscles
grouped by
function (e.g. stifle
extensors) or
muscles grouped
by innervation
(e.g. by femoral
nerve). There will
be a delay when
changing between
scenes.
The “Stifle_extensors” snapshot
Muscles in
this group
are
indicated by
an “open”
eye in the
MRML tree.
Selective display
Although the snapshots provide rapid display of preset groups, the
user is able to tailor the 3D model to display individual muscles.
Choose the “Skeleton 1” snapshot to display the 3D bone
model. Then click on any “closed eye” in the MRML tree to
display that muscle. See blue arrow above. See next slide.
Selective display
For example, by checking the eye next to the quadriceps femoris
muscle, it will be displayed on the skeleton.
User interface display options
By clicking on the blue button,
you can change the layout of
the user interface window, to
simultaneously display the
segmented MR images.
User interface display options
Or display only a single panel of images…
Label identification
Easy muscle identification
is one advantage of
displaying the segmented
MR images. Placing the
mouse over a colorblock
segmentation results in
the muscle identification
appearing in the lower left
of the image (see arrow).
This can be done with in
the 4 panel display, or in
the a single panel display

More to know…
• Slicer is an incredibly powerful program with
diverse capabilities. In this tutorial only the
most basic functions have been explained.
