License

SPAARC is available in the following versions

Hero Imaging

Hero Imaging and Cardiff University have an official collaboration to seamlessly integrate SPAARC radiomics extensive features into any Hero’s pipeline.

This version of SPAARC requires a valid Hero Imaging license and a valid SPAARC radiomics license.

This work is in progress. For more information please contact us using the form in the “Contact us” section or visit https://www.heroimaging.com.

MATLAB

The original SPAARC radiomics package was built with the MATLAB programming language.

In this version SPAARC radiomics is distributed in p-code format and was developed and tested on MATLAB 2021a and 2021b.

To handle the import of DICOM files into MATLAB we use existing functionalities offered by the Computational Environment for Radiological Research (CERR) open-source software.

This version of SPAARC builds on features provided by the following MATLAB toolboxes which are therefore required:

  • Image Processing Toolbox
  • Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox
  • Signal Processing Toolbox
  • Symbolic Math Toolbox

This version of SPAARC is available under a free research license.

MIM Software

We developed a SPAARC radiomics extension for MIM.

The SPAARC Workflow and sub-Workflow use commands that are common to both the MIM Encore and MIM Maestro licenses.

The MIMfusion Plus license would meet the requirements for the SPAARC Workflows’ commands (Find Contours, Launch Workflow for Each Item, Load RTstruct, Format Text, and Launch extension).

A MIM Assistant license is needed to run the SPAARC Workflow in batch mode on a MIM patient database.

A valid MATLAB license is required to run the SPAARC extension for MIM.

In this version SPAARC radiomics is distributed in p-code format and was tested on MATLAB 2021a.

SPAARC builds on features provided by the following MATLAB toolboxes which are also required to use the SPAARC radiomics extension:

  • Image Processing Toolbox
  • Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox
  • Signal Processing Toolbox
  • Symbolic Math Toolbox

This version of SPAARC is available under a free research license.

Python

We have written SPAARC radiomics in the Python programming language.

This version of SPAARC is available under a commercial license.
