[ITK] Convert stl to DICOM

[Andras Lasso]

Hi Markus,

What do you plan to do with the surface exported to DICOM?

RT structure sets are widely supported, but segmentation objects are relatively new. Do you know about any software that can read or write DICOM Surface Segmentation IOD?

Hi Dženan and Andras,

Thanks for your replies, I am looking for a way to save a polygonal surface. I am not sure yet if a conversion to an RTSTRUCT or even a binary image would suffice, it would not ideal though.

Best,

Markus

Currently Slicer supports these IODs for saving segmentations (both labelmap-based):
http://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/chtml/part03/sect_A.51.html
http://dicom.nema.org/dicom/2013/output/chtml/part03/sect_A.19.html

If there is a need, we can add Surface Segmentation IOD, too.

Hi Markus,

did you refer to DICOM polygonal surface<http://dicom.nema.org/dicom/2013/output/chtml/part03/sect_A.57.html> format? Or just binary DICOM image?

Andras, can slicer write this<http://dicom.nema.org/dicom/2013/output/chtml/part03/sect_A.57.html>?

Regards,
Dženan

3D Slicer (www.slicer.org<http://www.slicer.org>) should be able to do this conversion: it can import STL files that you can either convert to segmentations or fake images and then export to DICOM. Write to the slicer-users mailing list if you get stuck at any point.

Hi Markus,

Welcome to ITK!

Unfortunately, this feature is not available yet.
