[Insight-users] How to find information about ITK and isosurfaces

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Catherine,

Are the isosurfaces intended for visualization ?

If so,
what you may want to do is to combine ITK and VTK.


You will find examples on how to do this in :

     InsightApplications/Auxiliary/vtk

itkReadITKImage3DSegmentShowVTK.cxx
itkReadITKImageSegmentShowVTK.cxx
itkReadITKImageShowSplineVTK.cxx
itkReadITKImageShowVTK.cxx


You may also find interesting the Tutorials:

in particular

"Getting Started II: Using ITK with VTK."

If your iso-surfaces are not intended for visualization,
but for further processing, you may want to use the
filter:

"BinaryMask3DMeshSource"
