<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><small>Hi all,<br>
<br>
I am interested in visualizing vessels using curved planar reformatting
(CPR): the vessel is stretched flat along the centerline and the
surrounds deformed to accommodate.<br>
<br>
Does ITK implement curved planar reformatting for 3-D images?<br>
<br>
I have been unable to find any existing functions in ITK to achieve
this easily. The itkExtractOrthogonalSwath2DImageFilter is close, but
appears to only work on 2-D images. I suspect I might be able to use a
deformable transform coupled with the itkResampleImageFilter, but
obviously the difficulty is in specifying the transform kernel given an
itkPolyLineParametricPath. Currently I am able to extract paths
representing the centerlines, but I'm stuck as to where to go from
there. </small></font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><small>Does
