[Insight-users] ITK to VTK

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Alam,

Instructions of how to connect ITK to VTK
are available in the Tutorial sessions.

http://www . itk . org/HTML/Tutorials . htm

In particular in the PDF presentation:

http://www . itk . org/CourseWare/Training/GettingStarted-II . pdf

You can convert ITK images to VTK format
by using the filters in:

   InsightApplications/Auxiliary/vtk

Their files are

    itkImageToVTKImageFilter.h
    itkImageToVTKImageFilter.txx
    itkVTKImageToImageFilter.h
    itkVTKImageToImageFilter.txx

You can also convert itk::Mesh to vtkPolyData
by following the example in

     vtk2itk.cxx

in the same directory.

If you want to convert an ITK image already
 stored in a file, into a VTK image file,
you can simply use the example in

  Insight/Examples/ImageReadWrite.cxx

and provide as input a ITK image file format
and as output a .vtk fileformat.


If you are using the CVS version of VTK,
you will also find that a new reader for
MetaImages is available now.


Please let us know if you have further questions,


   Thanks

      Luis
