Hi

You can view vtk file in Paraview or MITK application that is built on top of vtk,itk.   Google for it you will get binaries.

  Hi

  You donot need ImageSeriesRead.  it used for only when you have image in form of slices.  

  Is it gives any error ? if not then vtk file will generated in your project folder.

  Dear Alex  
  I made it like this.
  reader->SetFileName( "D:\\To_SMK\\VHPAbdomen.mhd" );
  Now the command window show  nothing other than the .exe path.
  (D:\rgbabdomen\Debug>)
  Do I have to use  ImageSeriesRead WRite class?It is a suggestion only.
  Bye

    Hi

    Make one change

    reader->SetFileName( "D:\\To_SMK\\VHPAbdomen%o3d.mhd" );
    to 
    reader->SetFileName( "D:\\To_SMK\\VHPAbdomen.mhd" ); <= this is your input image name


    Let me know the result then

      Dear Alex


      Thanks for you reply.First I would like to answer your questions.

      This is what you asked from me.
      Hi


      1) I mean to say where is files from a_vm1455.raw to a_vm1905.raw ?  Is it same directory where you load VHPabdomen.mhd ?
      2) Your input image VHPabdomen.mhd  is color or gray scale ?
      3) After loading VHPabdomen.mhd do you want to produce slices or want to do any conversion ?

      Your code is not complete . If you can tell exactly what you want to do then we can help.


      1  Files a_vm1455.raw to a_vm1905.raw is the same directory (ie   VHPabdomen.mhd)
      2 Human Visible Dataset (ie VHPabdomen.mhd) is colour scale
      3 My ultimate gall is to save this .mhd file in .vtk format keeping RGB values .


      If you can direct me I can write codes again for that conversion.
      regards
      Shirani
