Ibis Neuronav

The Intraoperative Brain Imaging System (Ibis) is an open source image-guided neurosurgery (IGNS) platform that replicates most of the basic functionality of it commercial counterparts while allowing for rapid development of new techniques. The platform focuses on intraoperative imaging such as tracked ultrasound and improved visualization throught the use of augmented reality.

Ibis was originally developed by Simon Drouin and Anka Kochanowska in the NeuroImaging and Surgical Technologies lab at the Montreal Neurological Institute.

For instruction on how to get a copy of the code, build it and contribute to the project, please visit this page.

Prebuilt Windows binaries can be found here for the latest stable release (recommended), here for the latest experimental release and here for the latest experimental nightly build.
