[Insight-users] stl file format

[tony hakki]

thank you very much for your kind reply,actually I have also read stl file with VTK, now what I want to do is to: I have two 3D data sets one of is STL data and the other is volumetric data(.raw extension), I will do a registration with these two data sets(overlapping). As a beginner of  ITK I don't exactly know  how to start that application, I had a look at some examples in  itk-src-windows/examples/registration. can these examples help me to implement this application. Does anybody have any suggestion ?

Hi Tony,

ITK does not provide readers for STL.

What you may want to consider is to read your STL file with VTK
and then convert the mesh into an ITK mesh.

You could also rasterize the VTK mesh into a vtkImageData and
then convert that vtkImageData into an ITK image.

Examples on how to perform such conversions can be found in
the directory:

   Regards,


      Luis
