medInria

Participants : Jaime Garcia Guevara, Théodore Papadopoulo.

The Athena team is heavily involved in the development of medInria 2.0 along with the Asclepios, Parietal and Visages research teams. medInria is a free software platform dedicated to medical data visualization and processing. medInria 2.0, it is a complete re-write of the first version of medInria in order to be modular and allow a distributed development. It aims at providing an integrative platform for medical image processing and to be a framework for disseminating various research tools not only to other researchers but also to clinicians. New algorithms or data formats can be added as plugins.

It aims at providing to clinicians and researchers state-of-the-art algorithms developed at Inria and elsewhere (for the future), through an intuitive user interface. medInria offers from standard to cutting-edge processing functionalities for medical images such as 2D/3D/4D image visualization, image registration, diffusion MR processing and tractography.

Athena 's contributions so far consist in various improvements on the infrastructure, the core application as well as several plugins which are already available with version 2.1 (ODF vizualization) or in future ones: advanced dMRI processing, M/EEG signal visualisation (by integrating code from the software AnyWave developed by Bruno Colombet and J.-M. Badier INSERM U1106 and Aix-Marseille University ).

In 2013, the source code of the core of medInria was made public. Regular releases and bug fixes are provided on a large number of Linux, Windows and Mac versions, thanks to the Continuous Integration platform proposed at Inria.

After 4 years of important development, medInria is now rather mature and can be used as a basis for collaborations and projects. We now receive regular feedback through the forum and the mailing list, from both academic and clinical users.
