Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install openigtlink on Fedora 34.

OpenIGTLink is a network communication protocol specifically designed and developed for research on image-guided and computer-assisted interventions. It provides a standardized mechanism for communications among computers and devices in operating rooms (OR) for a wide variety of image-guided therapy (IGT) applications. Examples of such applications include - Stereotactic surgical guidance using optical position sensor and medical image visualization software - Intraoperative image guidance using real-time MRI and medical image visualization software - Robot-assisted interventions using robotic devices and surgical planning software OpenIGTLink is a set of messaging formats and rules (protocol) used for data exchange on a local area network (LAN). The specification of OpenIGTLink and its reference implementation, the OpenIGTLink Library, are available free of charge for any purpose including commercial use. openigtlink 2.1 11.fc34 x86_64 134 k openigtlink-2.1-11.fc34.src.rpm fedora Implementation of the OpenIGTLink network communication protocol http BSD OpenIGTLink is a network communication protocol specifically designed and developed for research on image-guided and computer-assisted interventions.

We can use yum or dnf to install openigtlink on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install openigtlink.

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00

Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

After updating yum database, We can install openigtlink using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install openigtlink

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00

After updating yum database, We can install openigtlink using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install openigtlink

To uninstall only the openigtlink package we can use the following command:

sudo dnf remove openigtlink
