FireVoxel Build 167 is released.

Corrected the "last loaded extension" issue in the OpenRAW function of the Layer Control dialog box.

Wednesday, January 7, 2015

Updated the About dialog box to avoid text-picture overlap at various font sizes.
Enabled starting functionality for the VA-grant dialog.  Implemented a system of extracting the "reference volume files" first.  This would allow to conveniently separate file extraction from image processing tasks.

Corrected the dialog logic (pasting appropriate dz suggestion) inside the Dialog SpecifyResolution.
DICOM Save:  changed the default compression mode to "Uncompressed".  Enabled load of the result by ImageJ (requires uncompressed).
DICOM File Save:  added tags that were missing in previous versions:
TAG_SERIES_NUMBER
TAG_INSTANCE_NUMBER (former TAG_IMAGE_NUMBER)
TAG_MODALITY

HL-case:  PET-FDG.   Reconstruction artefact due to the Gross motion between timepoints #34 and #36.  It appears that at T#35 the reconstruction has combined the head signal from several grossly distant positions, resulting in blurred image and halo (well visible on left-top corner T#35).
This timepoint is too blurred to be motion corrected but result is reasonable. Everything else is motion corrected quite well.

HL - T#34 (2440 sec)

HL-T#35 (2740 sec)

HL- T#36 (3040 sec)

Comparison of   "IVIM- free fit" on the sample dataset obtained from Henry:  Eric's vs. FVX
Eric's IVIM-free fit.  Residual = 2.33


FireVoxel IVIM-free fit.  Residual=2.006

Comparison of   "IVIM-segmented fit" on the sample dataset obtained from Henry:  Eric's vs. FVX

Eric's IVIM-segmented fit.  M0=Tac[b0].  Residual = 2.3



FireVoxel IVIM-segmented fit.  M0 is fitted.  Residual=2.13

PET-FDG motion correction.  Most challenging case (MB-15) of the last batch.  Before and after motion correction, reference BrainMask from the last timepoint (#38) is overlaid on the maximum displacement timepoint (#27)

MainMenu>ROI>Clip Volume by ROI:   completely parallelized the implementation with great performance gain (on long 4D sequences).

1. FireVoxel file save - disabled the PHI warning,
2. Fixed crash defect:  4D volume overlaid by 3D-ROI as active layer.  Calling EdgeWave function was producing crash.
3. Defect fix: EdgeWave algorithm on real-valued volumes:  provided correct conversion of units from the dialog box to the actual procedure.
4. Affine transform reslicing: substantially increased the parallelization resulting in about x2 speed improvement on the developmental 6-core platform.
5. SIG_DIFF registration measure:  changed accumulation from L2 to L1 norm.
6. UI - VolumeSmooth function:  Removed erroneous  "ROI required function"
7. VolumeSmooth (Median):  corrected the fixed memory allocation for the sorting, so the smoothing of double-valued volumes does not crash anymore.
8. Fully parallelized the VolumeSmooth procedure so it runs with the 100% load on 12-thread system.
9. Implemented initial variant of the "DICOM File Extractor" dialog box.
Implemented initial variant of the "DICOM File Extractor" dialog box.
Next iteration of CT file extractor dialog:
