3D Slicer 5.10: New Workflows, Tools, and Core Upgrades

The 3D Slicer 5.10 release introduces a set of meaningful enhancements designed to help medical imaging experts work more efficiently, build more advanced workflows, and take advantage of the next generation of Python-based tooling. This session will walk through improvements in volume rendering, DICOM data handling, segmentation workflows, and the addition of new core modules, including Curved Planar Reformation and Line Profile, along with a wide range of new extensions spanning segmentation, registration, synthesis, and surgical planning.

These updates address common pain points for Slicer users:

• Integrating modern Python libraries.
• Reducing friction in segmentation tasks.
• Improving interoperability and data loading reliability.
• Enabling more precise image exploration.

During the webinar, the Slicer team will provide a brief introduction to the platform and then move directly into live demonstrations of the new tools and enhancements. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and get direct feedback from the developers during an extended Q&A session.
