    Dear Ashwath,<br>
    <br>
    IGSTK does not provide classes for separating a single mesh object
    into multiple objects. You will have to create a filter that does
    this using a combination of ITK (mesh processing) and VTK
    (interaction, possibly processing). The result can obviously be
    displayed and used for navigation guidance in IGSTK. It is not a
    question whether you use IGSTK or ITK and VTK. The toolkits are
    complementary to each other. Depending on your needs you will often
    have to use all three.<br>
    <br>
                   regards<br>
                          Ziv<br>
