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.

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.

excellent, especially due to lack of alternatives.

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?

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.

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

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

This is awsome! Helping me no end with FTDT acoustic simulation

11 Dec 2005 Nick Clark

FDTD sorry - long day :)

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.

Wonderful

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.

26 Jan 2009 neftirini isabel

can someone help me, with how do i call it on matlab...i am a new user, and i didnt manage to add it to the toolbox...

06 Feb 2009 ucd puri

seems nie, i will try to ue it

10 Feb 2009 poornima

i have some dicom images. can anyone tell me how can i view these dicom images?

11 May 2009 Edgar Guevara Codina

Really nice job!

20 Dec 2009 Harinee A.S

can anyone tell me how this works.. can we import images in this..

08 Jan 2010 Jacob Kirkensgaard

I have a problem with sliceomatic on OSX 10.6.2, matlab v. 7.10.0 (R2010a). When I start up the program I am in cursor mode and am able to control the slice buttons etc., but if I go to rotate-mode I can't get back to cursor-mode - the little arrow is simply missing from the annotation toolbar... Or am I missing something?

??? Undefined function or method 'sliceomatic' for input arguments of type 'uint8'. what's wrong? how to solve it?
                    
ning thanks

26 Jan 2011 felix

hi,
my variable v equals 50x50x50 dimension with values for each point. I just plotted
 sliceomatic1p0(v);
the whole sliceomatic tool, which is great-thx a lot-, showed up except my variable v with datas. the dice was empty. did i do smth wrong?

27 Nov 2011 leila

How can I see the black voxel in the volume, all the zero-value voxels are invisible! :(, please guide me, thanks.
