Standards

Standardization

IBSI 1.0

Radiomic Feature Extraction

ViSERA is a python-based open-source package that enables standardized and reproducible radiomic feature extraction in compliance with the Image Biomarker Standardization Initiative (IBSI 1.0).

IBSI 2.0

Image Filtering

Image filters have been standardized against IBSI 2.0 by implementing and validating several filter options, ensuring reproducibility across research institutions worldwide.

Python

Open Source

ViSERA is a major, entirely-revamped upgrade to the original SERA (Matlab-based), now built on Python for broader accessibility and community contribution.

End-to-End

Standardized Workflows

ViSERA employs a number of popular image processing algorithms to create end-to-end standardized workflows for consistent, reproducible research results.

History

Our Origins

Tecvico (formerly known as Visera) has been developing since 2021 by the Quantitative Radiomolecular Imaging and Therapy (Qurit) lab & program at the University of British Columbia & BC Cancer Research Institute, Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between cutting-edge radiomics research and practical clinical application by providing standardized, reproducible, and user-friendly software tools.
