Version 2.0 Beta

New Qt 5 / VTK 8 version of SMILI!

Supports themes, Freesurfer and faster Qt 5 rendering and UI.

A OAI Knee MR Dataset visualised using the imaging and volume rendering capability of SMILX with vertical tiling and camera matching.

Binaries Includes the DICOM plugin.

Built with ITK 4.13.2, VTK 8.1.1 and Qt 5.12.8 via VS 2017 (Windows) and GCC 9.2 (Fedora 30) from the topic-qt5 branch. Ubuntu build uses VTK 7.1.1 with same versions above for other libraries.

Version 1.04

Features/Improvements:

• Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) for Images - Found in the Operations -> Maximum Intensity Projection in SMILX and as '--mip' in the milxImageApp
• Added image subsampling for milxImageApp as '-x'
• Fixed bug for Binary Threshold for Integer Images in SMILX

Minimum Dependencies:
VTK 5.8.0, ITK 4.10, Qt 4.8, PythonQt 2.1, FFMPEG 1.2, FFTW 3.3

Recommended Dependencies:
VTK 6.3.0, ITK 4.10, Qt 4.8, PythonQt 2.1, FFMPEG 1.2, FFTW 3.3

For the SSM plugin, you will need VTK 5.8.0. To get a updated version of VTK 5.8.0, see my VTK 5 related blog post. VTK 5.10.1 will also work for the SSM plugin, but is known to have image display bugs.

Important Notes about Dependencies and OSes:
VTK 5.10.1 and VTK 6+ will also work, but is known to have image display bugs.
Mac OSX support is limited because of availability of machines to the developer and restrictive Apple EULAs. Builds and plugins work correctly on local builds. DMG installers have issues with plugins at the moment.
UPDATE: Added Mac OSX installer with DICOM plugin, v1.02a.

Installers/Binaries Notes:
See YouTube video showing the shape modelling feature.

Version 2.0 Alpha

Installer for an experimental SMILI build for supporting Qt 5 (5.9.8), VTK 8 (8.1.1) and ITK 4 (4.13.2) with recent compiler fixes. Supports Visual Studio 2017 for Windows and GCC 9 for Fedora.

New Features:
SMILX supports Themes!
Added Dark theme.
Edit Themes

Other fixes:

• Fixed binary threshold not working for integer images (worked fine for float and 8-bit images)
• Added subsample feature for the milxImageApp command line app
• DICOM plugin should work for Qt 5
• Added support for SMILX color themes
• Added milxBlend command line app for blending images via the command line

Please report any issues or bugs found in this build.

Version 1.03

Plugins provided:
Registration (16.04/Windows)
Animation (Linux/Windows)
DICOM (Linux/Windows/Mac)
Finite Transform (16.04/Windows)
Python (16.04/Windows)

Standard recommended installer is the 'v1.03'. For those wanting the statistical shape model (SSM) plugin, please use the 'SSM-only-v1.03' installer. The latter utilizes VTK 5 and other functionality may not be as good as the recommended installer.

v1.0-RC2: Bug Fix Release

SMILI Release Candidate 2

• This version fixes a couple of issues on Linux platforms for filenames and paths
• Minor bug fixes to volume rendering and DICOM code
• Volume rendering improvements. Requires VTK 6+ OpenGL 2 backend for GPU enabled rendering.
• Improved onscreen label visualisation.
• Improved command line arguments for the model and DICOM apps
• Added support for legacy unstructured grid files
• Thresholding limits input in SMILX fixed

Plugins are currently not being shipped in the Mac installers, as there are issues with the DragNDrop creator not working properly (with the current SMILI configuration) and this causes link errors. This will hopefully be fixed in the next release.

Ubuntu 16.04 support will be improved with VTK 6 installer once SMILI's Qt 5 support is completed. Right now the Ubuntu 16.04 installer uses VTK 5.10, which has a known bug for gamma control for images not working correctly.

v1.0-RC1: Bug Fix Release

SMILI Release Candidate 1

This version fixes a couple of issues on Windows on Mac platforms.

• Screenshot crash in sMILX has been fixed. Caused by offscreen rendering not working sometimes for Windows and Mac.
• Fixed Windows crash for vector images. Appears to have been caused by ITK 4.7. Upgraded to ITK 4.8.2.

Registration plugin has issues on Windows (DLL link error caused by the installer). A USB-stick version of SMILI will be provided shortly to allow users to use the plugin on Windows (marked '-Reg'). Ubuntu versions are unaffected.

Plugins are currently not being shipped in the Mac installers, as there are issues with the DragNDrop creator not working properly (with the current SMILI configuration) and this causes link errors. This will hopefully be fixed in the next release.

EDIT: Added Ubuntu 16.04 Debian package with animate, DICOM and SSM plugins. Full support will be done soon with Qt 5.
