And because they exported it, they will think they are done (and implicitly assume they can import what they exported), and close their session without ever saving the markups in appropriate format, causing a data loss or a major headache to re-convert those back. My specific concern is that people will do the landmarking, then they will export the data in a non-Slicer format. ![]() even offered to help you with this, so you would probably not need to invest a lot effort. Probably all the algorithms that MorphoJ offers are available in various Python packages and Slicer/SlicerMorph has all the GUI components you may need, so what is missing is really just putting together convenient modules for specific analysis tasks that you are interested in. Maybe SlicerMorph could fulfill this need. This indicates that there is a huge opportunity here for an alternative software, which is similarly easy to use, but based on current technology, and it is open and reproducible. It still has about 500 mentions on Google Scholar per year, so there are users. MorphoJ looks like a closed-source project, with no development community around it, based on 15-20 year old technologies and with a look and feel of about the same era. We can possibly work with you, if you want to go down that route You can explore the available linear model tools in Python, and use them within Slicer/SlicerMorph. These export options would not need to be added to the “Save data” window, they could be in separate module(s) or subject hierarchy right-click menu actions.Īmong all discussed options however, this one sounds by far the most promising to me: However, supporting multiple file formats for data export would be probably fine, it should be just clear for the users that it is not for data storage, only for interoperability. ![]() I agree that supporting multiple file formats for data storage is a huge liability and we ideally we would use a single format. I am not inclined to support any format that is not native to Slicer within SlicerMorph, as if people start using those formats to keep their data in, that will break our functionality (or formats don’t have things that we care or need, like units or coordinate systems).
