At Kitware we are heavily engaged in medical research and so our
requirements are towards high-end scientific computing software. The open
source tools that we use, and the general requirements that they address
are:
+ VTK- the visualization toolkit for 3D rendering, interaction, volume
rendering, and informatics
vtk.org
+ ITK- the Insight segmentation and registration toolkit for image
processing, segmentation and registration
itk.org
+ 3D Slicer- a clinical research platform built on open-source tools like
VTK and VTK
slicer.org
+ IGSTK- the image guided surgery toolkit with device tracking and display
igstk,org
+ MIDAS- multimedia data server which is used for storing, accessing and
processing medical data
http://www.kitware.com/midasindex.html
and because we have significant concerns about software quality and
regulatory control we use the CMake/CTest/CDash suite of software process
tools
cmake.org and
cdash.org. Finally, GUI development and integration
tools are typically Qt and Python.
To actually see how these tools are used, look at the NAMIC web pages
na-mic.org and wiki
http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/Main_Page. NAMIC is
one of seven US National Centers for Biomedical Computing funded by the NIH
and the licenses used by the NAMIC suite of software are generally BSD or
LGPL.

Hi,
As we agreed about finding out the requirements of practitioners, it
would be nice to get them listed.
It may seem like a foolish question, but bear with me. :)
1. In general practice what are the tasks that need uses of software?
Thanks.
