[Insight-users] How to calculate a volume

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Xi,


You could use:


1) StatisticsImageFilter
    and call GetSum()

    and then multiply by the pixel volume,
    as Marius suggested.


or

2)  itkLabelStatisticsImageFilter.h
      and call GetCount()

    and then multiply by the pixel volume,
    as Marius suggested.


or

3)  itkImageMomentsCalculator.h
      and call GetTotalMass(), then divide
      by the label value of the mask, and
     multiply by the pixel volume


OR


4)   itkLabelGeometryImageFilter.h
      can call GetVolume( label )
      where "label" is the label value
     of your mask.

For this option you may find useful to
read the Insight Journal paper:

 *  "A Label Geometry Image Filter for Multiple Object Measurement"
 *  by Padfield D., Miller J
 *  http://www.insight-journal.org/browse/publication/301
 *  http://hdl.handle.net/1926/1493


OR


5)  Use itkShapeLabelMapFilter.txx

     and in the output itkShapeLabelObject,
     call:

                     GetPhysicalSize().

     For this option you will find useful to
     read the following Insight Journal paper:
