3D Slicer
[http://www.slicer.org 3D Slicer] is a software program for visualization, registration, segmentation, and quantification of medical data.

MGH NMR Center Installation
Within the MGH NMR Center, 3D Slicer is already installed on the network for both the Linux and Mac OS (PowerPC and Intel) platforms. You start 3D Slicer v2.6, which is the current stable version, by typing:
slicer2
Notes:
- A command named 'slicer' exists in the FSL toolset, and is completely unrelated to the 3D Slicer application, so remember not to confuse the two.
- 'slicer2' is a wrapper-script found in /usr/pubsw/bin, which starts the stable version 2.# of 3D Slicer for the platform you are using. Older and alpha versions of 3D Slicer are found in /usr/pubsw/packages/slicer. The one considered the most stable (and launched via 'slicer2') is found in /usr/pubsw/packages/slicer/current.
- Soon, version 3 of 3D Slicer will become available. When this is available, this command will be used to start it:
slicer3
