  1. OpenIGTLink Update NA-MIC Summer Project Week 2010 Junichi Tokuda, Ph.D. Department of Radiology Brigham and Women’s Hospital NCIGT National Center for Image Guided Therapy http://ncigt.org

  2. Backgrounds • Hardware/software in IGT • Position tracking sensors • MR/CT/Ultrasound scanners • Robotic devices • Planning and navigation software • Data types • Images • Positions / Transforms • Software / hardware status, etc… • Communication standard for IGT?

  3. Goals of OpenIGTLink • Available • Research and commercial • Simple • From embedded system to HPC • Extensible • Variety of data types • Reliable • Used clinically!

  4. Protocol − Overview • Message-based Protocol • No session / messages are independent • Allows application-specific message types Header Body IMAGE Type Body TRANSFORM Type Body COMMAND Type Body …. Body Size

  5. Protocol − Body • Position / Transform x y z ox oy oz w position orientation (quaternion) tx ty tz sx sy sz nx ny nz x y z

  6. Protocol − Body • Image • 2D/3D • Integer / floating point • Scalar / vector • Partial Image update Generic info size transform partial volume index/size Pixel data

  7. The OpenIGTLink Library • Multi-platform C/C++ Library • Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris • Used in QNX, iPhone OS, vxWorks etc.. Application C++ socket & thread class C++ message class C message structure

  8. The OpenIGTLink Library • Code snippet (9 lines to send position)

  9. The OpenIGTLink Library • Various “hello world” examples • Tracker simulator • Imager simulator • Data receive server • etc.

  10. 3D Slicer OpenIGTLink I/F • Import to / export from MRML scene • Image (vtkMRMLScalarVolumeNode) • Transform (vtkMRMLLinearTransformNode) Ethernet Tracker 3D Slicer MRML Scene OpenIGTLink Module 1 Connector node 1 LinearTransform Imager Module 2 Image OpenIGTLink Connector node 2 … LinearTransform Ext. software Connector node N Image Module N OpenIGTLink

  11. 3D Slicer OpenIGTLink I/F • Import / export

  12. 3D Slicer + BrainLAB Elhawary H, Norton I, Patel P, Rigolo L, Papademetris X, Hata N, Golby AJ (BWH / Yale / BrainLAB)

  13. 3D Slicer + BrainLAB • Research prototype (Slicer) + FDA-approved IGS system (BrainLAB) IGS system Research Prototype BrainLAB VectorVision 3D Slicer VVLink OpenIGTLink Bridge Software BioImage Suit VVLink OpenIGTL Image / Tracking data (VVLink) Image / Tracking data (OpenIGTLink)

  14. MRg Prostate Biopsy Robot Fischer G, Tokuda J, Song S, Iordachita I, DiMaio S, Cho N, Csoma C, Bleivns J, Burdette EC, Fichtinger G, Hata N, Tempany C (Johns Hopkins, BWH, Queen’s, Acoustic MedSystems)

  15. MRg Prostate Biopsy Robot • Integration of Slicer, robot and scanner 3D Slicer Robot Proxy Controller Command OpenIGTLink OpenIGTLink Pipe Pipe Current position Scanner Proxy MRI Scanner Real-time image OpenIGTLink Proprietary Proprietary Imaging slice position

  16. Neurosurgical Manipulator Arata J, Tada Y, Yamada A, Tanaka Y, Fujimoto H (Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan)

  17. Neurosurgical Manipulator • System diagram

  18. Motion Correction for MRgFUS • MR Image Motion Correction by US-based motion tracking MRI Scanner No Motion w/ motion Uncorrected w/ motion Corrected Scanner Hardware OpenIGTLink Schwartz BM, McDannold N Brigham and Women’s Hospital Imaging slice position

  19. Cardiac EP Catheter + 3D Slicer Jagadeesan J, Hata N Brigham and Women’s Hospital

  20. Cardiac EP Catheter + 3D Slicer • Matab/Simulink in backstage…

  21. Next Steps • OpenIGTLink Protocol Version 2 (draft) • Backward compatibility with version 1 • Query support • Better IGS system support • Other message types?

  22. Query Support • “Get” message to request data • “Start”, “stop” and “pause” messages to control data streaming • “Status” message to respond to query

  23. IGS Systems Support • Remote Image List • Display a list of images available in the remote software • Tracking data • Multi-channel, device name • Fiducial, trajectory • Share surgical planning information

  24. Other Message Types? • Remote Execution • Run Tcl/Python on 3D Slicer from remote • Remote procedure call • XML data / Associative array • General data types • Versatility but compromised performance

  25. MATLAB Interface • MATLAB – 3D Slicer communication

  26. OpenIGTLink + ZeroMQ • A layer between OpenIGTLink and TCP/IP • Support different message patterns • Point-to-point • Publish-subscribe • Request-reply • Parallelized pipeline • Proposed in CTK OpenIGTLink ZeroMQ TCP IP Ethernet http://www.commontk.org/index.php/Documentation/Messaging by Patrick Cheng (Georgetown)
