[Insight-users] segmentation

[Joshua Cates]

Hello Michael,

Nearly all of the segmentation tools in 
ITK can be used to segment 3D volumes.  
The best place to find examples and read 
about the methods is in the Software Guide, 
which is downloadable for free from 
www.itk.org.

The ImageSeriesReader can be used to read 
multiple slices into a volume.  There are
examples of its use in Insight/Examples/IO.

Several  applications integrating ITK with 
VTK have been developed and are available
in the InsightApplications dowload.  See
www.itk.org for details on how to get this
code.

Josh.
