MITK 2.1 Key changes from 1.X
Eglish
  1. NEW fully support of out-of-core data set, including out-of-core volume and out-of-core mesh: update the class hierarchy of mitkDataObject; add mitkOoCVolume, mitkOoCTriangleMesh and mitkHEOoCTriangleMesh to support out-of-core volume, mesh and half-edge mesh:
            Some changes to the interfaces:
            a. mitkVolume::Allocate() no longer return the pointer to the volume data, return a bool value to indicate whether the space allocation is successful;
            b. mitkVolume::GetData() does not always return a valid pointer to the volume data, it will return NULL for mitkOoCVolume;
            c. mitkVolume add new interfaces (e.g. GetSliceForRead(), GetSliceForWrite(), GetSliceForReadWrite(), ReadSliceData(), WriteSliceData(), etc.) for accessing slice data in the volume which are recommended to use (see class documentation for details);
            d. mitkMesh::GetVertexData() and mitkMesh::GetFaceData() do not always return the valid pointers to the vertex/face data, they will return NULL for out-of-core mesh;
            e. mitkMesh add new interfaces (e.g. GetVertex(), GetFace(), SetVertex(), SetFace(), etc.) for accessing the vertex/face data(see class documentation for etails).
  2. NEW mitkOoCVolumeRayCastCompositeFunction and mitkOoCVolumeRendererRayCasting classes: provide out-of-core volume ray casting algorithm;
  3. NEW mitkOoCVolumeRendererTexture3D class: provide 3D texture based volume rendering algorithm;
  4. NEW mitkOoCSurfaceRendererStandard and mitkOoCSurfaceRendererUseVA classes: support surface rendering for the out-of-core mesh;
  5. NEW mitkCacheVolumeReader and mitkCacheVolumeWriter classes: provide I/O functions for the disk cache data of mitkOoCVolume, which can reuse the cache data and accelerate the loading process of the out-of-core volume data;
  6. UPDATE mitkMarchingCubes and mitkBinMarchingCubes classes: provide out-of-core Marching Cubes algorithm;
  7. UPDATE the basic I/O classes (e.g. mitkDICOMReader/Wirter, etc.): support out-of-core data I/O;
  8. UPDATE filter classes: support out-of-core input and output data;
  9. UPDATE examples: add out-of-core test part, configure two lines in MITKTest.h #define TEST_OOC // comment it and rebuild to remove out-of-core test part char const DISK_CACHE_PATH[] = "i:\\temp\\ooctemp\\";
  10. Fix others bugs found in MITK 1.x.

 

MITK 2.1 Key changes from 2.0

  2. NEW mitkProjectData class, the abstract class that represents CT project data;
  3. NEW mitkProjectDataToVolumeFilter class, the abstract class that represents CT reconstruction;
  4. NEW mitkFanBeamProjectDataToVolume, mitkFbFbpSpeed, mitkFbFbpSpeedUsingGpu classes, the abstract class and concrete classes, which represent fan beam CT reconstruction respectively;
  5. NEW mitkConeBeamProjectDataToVolume, mitkFDK, mitkTFDK, mitkFDKSpeedUsingGPU classes, the abstract class and concrete classes, which represent fan beam CT reconstruction respectively;
  6. NEW mitkTransferFunction2D class: provide the 2D opacity Transfer Function for volume rendering;
  7. NEW mitkTFLevPyramid class, NEW mitkTFLevSquare class, NEW mitkLevTriangle class: map the data property (data and gradient magnitude) to opacity using some objects in a square;
  8. NEW mitkTransferFunctionLev class: is a virtual class and the parent class of mitkTFLevPyramid , mitkTFLevSquare and mitkLevTriangle class;
  9. Fix bugs found in MITK 2.0.
