The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Visualization of image data from cells to organisms (2010, neutral): “…direct volume rendering can be computationally expensive, the advent of high-powered graphical processing units has allowed many software tools (for example, OsiriX, ImageVis3D in SCIRun, 3D Slicer 7,8 , VTK (Tables 1 and 2)) to provide these capabilities interactively on personal computers.”
3D Slicer as an Image Computing Platform for the Quantitative Imaging Network (2012, methodology): “These libraries are distributed as part of the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC) Kit [35], a collection of the software tools supported in part by the NA-MIC project.”
An Open Source Multivariate Framework for n-Tissue Segmentation with Evaluation on Public Data (2011, background): “An implementation is provided in 3D slicer (Pieper et al. 2006)—an open source medical image computation and visualization package with developmental contributions from multiple agencies including both private and academic institutions.”
Medical image registration: a review (2014, neutral): “2005) – source code in Cþþ ; 3D Slicer (Gering et al. 1999; Pieper et al. 2004; Pieper et al. 2006) – almost all source code in Cþþ ; FLIRT (Jenkinson and Smith 2001) – source code in Cþþ and Elastix (Klein et al.”
