[Mristudio-users] Computational Anatomy Works (CAWorks) - LDDMM Region of Interest Processing

[joeh at cis.jhu.edu]

There is a new version of CAWorks 381 b45 for linux
built using the cde version from 8/15/11 and having a
slightly modified run script.

caworks-package-381-b45-v2-32-bit-ubuntu-cde.tar.gz
caworks-package-381-b45-v2-64-bit-ubuntu-cde.tar.gz

The 32 bit version has been tested on 32 bit versions of
 Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 11.04, and CentOS 6

and the 64 bit version has been tested on 64 bit versions of
 Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 11.04, and CentOS 6

> Computational Anatomy Works (CAWorks) Software Announcement
>
> CAWorks is available through mristudio.org under:
>
>    https://www.mristudio.org/download/binaries/caworks/
>
> The software application Computational Anatomy Works (CAWorks) was
> developed to support Computational Anatomy and shape analysis. The
> capabilities of CAWorks include:
>
>    1. Interactive landmark placement to create segmentation (mask) of
> desired region of interest
>
>    2. Specialized landmark placement plugins for subcortical structures
> such as hippocampus and amygdala
>
>    3. Support for multiple Medical Imaging data formats, such as Nifti,
> Analyze, Freesurfer, DICOM and landmark data
>
>    4. Quadra Planar view visualization
>
>    5. Shape Analysis plugin modules, such as Large Deformation
> Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM)
>
> Current enhancements to CAWorks have focused on interactive support for
> landmarking of subcortical structures. Specific plugins are available for
> landmark placement of the hippocampus, amygdala and entorhinal cortex
> regions. After landmarking is completed, CAWorks facilitates submission
> for automated segmentation processing. CAWorks is being used by the
> Biomarkers for Older Controls At Risk for Dementia (BIOCARD), Resource for
> Quantitative Functional MRI: TRD4, Validation of Structural/Functional MRI
> Localization and Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) projects.
>
> CAWorks extends ParaView, an open source, multi-platform, freely available
> program for parallel, interactive, scientific visualization. An important
> visualization tool for TeraGrid researchers, its client-server
> architecture facilitates remote visualization of datasets and the
> generation of level of detail (LOD) models that maintain interactive frame
> rates for large datasets.
