Hi all,<div><br></div><div>first of all thanks for your answer. i ve already seen 3D slicer but i am trying to build my own code with itk, vtk and qt classes so i did not use any of the modules. Besides, sometimes it is difficult to take any ideas from a big amount of source code. anyway, i am gonna try to take ideas from it.</div><div><br></div><div>any other ideas?</div><div><br></div><div>thanks,</div><div>Alba<br><div>

In case you don't know about it, I wanted to mention that 3D Slicer has DTI capabilities built-in, including conversion of DWI DICOM files to nrrd, fitting tensors, and visualization/selection. <br>
See here for more info:<br>
<a href="http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation-3.6#Diffusion_MRI" target="_blank">http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation-3.6#Diffusion_MRI</a><br><br>Right now ITK is not used for the actual tensor work in the primary GUI modules; most of that is handled through VTK wrappings of Gordon Kindlmann's Teem library (on sourceforge). But Slicer has GTRACT tools wrapped too - which use ITK for everything. We are looking at ways to use more ITK because it has support for threaded filters (for faster estimation).<br>
<br>We are in the process of revamping the DWI-related GUI interface and extending (ie DSI, HARDI) support for the next major release. Slicer is BSD-licensed open-source (like ITK) and the mailing lists are always very welcoming to new users!<br>
<br>Cheers,<br>-Isaiah<br><br><div class="ecxgmail_quote">On Wed, Mar 16, 2011 at 10:50 AM, alba garin <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:albagarin1986@hotmail.com">albagarin1986@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

good afternoon,<div><br></div><div>i am already using DiffusionTensor3D for representing every voxel in a diffusion tensor image. i ve already visualized the slice views of the brain in colors, representing the diffusion of the water (with a rgb itk image). Now i am trying to visualize the tracts, and i found the DTITubeSpatialObject. But i realized that it is similar to DiffusionTensor3D. </div>
<div>1 .- are they similar or once i use diffusionTensor3D i do not need DTITubeSpatialObject? i think i need it coz in the object i have the tensor, the fa and the color (and more information) all together. </div><div>2.- what class of itk do you recommend me to represent the tracts? </div>
<div><br></div><div>thanks,</div><div>Alba</div><div><br><div>
