History

 

Baby SliceO is a medical imaging software designed to help create 3D models from Ultrasound, CT and MRI scans.

 

Baby SliceO is derived from sliceOmatic 5.0.

 

SliceOmatic was developed as an in-house research tool. It was considered such a powerful tool that its fame grew by word of mouth, and soon it was used extensively by researchers around the world. Those who had the opportunity to use it were unanimous: sliceOmatic is the best tool for both Body Composition research and 3D modeling of anatomical structures. After many years of continual improvement, it is now available to the public.

 

The first version of sliceOmatic was developed for SGI’s UNIX computers. But the advent of Pentium processors and powerful OpenGL graphic cards made it possible to port the application on PCs. Starting with version 4.1, sliceOmatic became a Windows application.

 

Baby Sliceo is designed to use the power of GPU computing to generate real-time mesh from 3D voxel data.  The software is designed using CUDA a language proprietary to NVidia, so at this time the software only work if you computer is equipped with a NVidia graphic processors.
