[Insight-users] Separating Brain - MRI

[Paul Jhin]

Hi Luis,

Thanks,

I already tried some methods. Very easy to ITK.

How can I generate a mesh for finite element analysis?.

How can I generate a mesh for finite element analysis?. Some articles cited
the class ImageToMeshFilter but there is in it that I'm using ITK (ITK 3.8).
Have some example?


Regards,
Paul Jhin
