Hi everybody. This is Jared over at BWH. We are currently working on
some manual editing of segmentation volumes. This requires repetitively
switching the view between the segmentation volume and the black and
white MRI volume as you edit. This is normally done in TkMedit with the
control-g keystroke which activates the "Segmentation Overlay" command
in the View menu. In editing the segmentation volume for any given
patient the number of times that this keystroke is used is on the order
of hundreds to thousands. What we would like to do is find a way to
automate that keystroke so that during editing the view would
automatically switch every 5 seconds or so between the black and white
MRI image and the segmentation overlay. We use MAC OS X, leopard, and
have thought of using automator or apple script to automate the
command. We think this might be difficult to do because the
"segmentation overlay" command cannot be elicited from Terminal
(Terminal is Mac OS's command-line interface). If the "segmentation
overlay" command could be elicited from a command-line prompt it should
be a simple matter to create a script that would repetitively enter this
command. Does anyone know how we could accomplish automation of this
task within TkMedit?
All the best,
Jared
