[Insight-users] [ITK Community] Warping 2D contours in 3D

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Nookie,

If your final goal is to map the 2D contours,
*and*
if the points in your contours have 3D coordinates,

then, you can do the mapping without having to create a surface mesh.


Simply iterate through the 3D points in the contours and map them
using the transform that you got from the registration process, with
the methods


           outputPoint = transform->TransformPoint(  inputPoint );

With this mapping process you can generate a family of contours
in the destination space.

Note that the 2D contours that were aligned with the slices of one
image, most likely will not be aligned with the sliced of the destinaiton
image after the transformation (due to potential rotations in 3D).


  Regards,

      Luis
