Open-source · SINTEF Medical Image Analysis
Raidionics automatically segments central nervous system tumors from MRI and produces a standardized clinical report — as a desktop app or a 3D Slicer plugin.
What it does
Built for neurosurgical and radiological research teams working with pre- and post-operative MRI, where volumes and locations are measured by hand today.
Voxel-wise tumor masks from a single click, trained with an Attention U-Net architecture on partner-hospital data.
Every mask becomes the same set of numbers, so cases and cohorts can be compared directly.
Pre- and post-operative scans are reported together, quantifying what the surgery achieved.
How it works
Four steps, fully automatic. The desktop app and the 3D Slicer plugin are front ends over the same open-source backend libraries.
01
Pre- or post-operative scans, as raw DICOM or volume formats such as NIfTI.
02
In-house trained models outline the tumor compartments: contrast-enhancing, surrounding non-enhancing, FLAIR hyperintensity.
03
Volumes, diameters, laterality and cortical/subcortical profiles, mapped onto reference atlases.
04
A structured clinical report ready for review, following the EANO/RANO 2.0 guidelines.
Runs locally
Inference happens on your own machine through a graphical interface. No data leaves it, and no internet connection is needed to process a patient.
Scriptable backends
The segmentation and reporting libraries are usable on their own via Python, the command line, or Docker — for batch studies and reproducible pipelines.
Open source
BSD-2-Clause licensed, developed in the open, with trained models released alongside the peer-reviewed papers describing them.
See it in action
Use it as a stand-alone desktop app, or inside 3D Slicer if that's already part of your workflow.
A self-contained desktop app — install it and go, no other software required.
