[Insight-users] Re: Viewing Images

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Sharad,

There is an image viewer in

   InsightApplications/ImageViewer

It requires ITK and FLTK.
This is a slice by slice viewer.

----

You can also use a VTK pipeline by
taking your ITK image and converting
it to a vtkImageData. This is easily
done with the filter ImageToVTKImageFilter
available at

InsightApplications/Auxiliary/vtk

> itkImageToVTKImageFilter.h
> itkImageToVTKImageFilter.txx


There are multiple way of visualizing
your images using VTK. You may want
to look at the simple solution of the

     vtkImageViewer

or have more flexibility with the

      vtkImageActor

or get interactivity with the

      vtkImagePlaneWidget

---

If you want a full fledged application
you can use the free version of VolView
that can be downloaded from

   http://www.kitware.com/products/volview.html

It provides multicomponent volume rendering,
slice by slice orthogonal planes, oblique
planes and you can write ITK plugins for it.



Regards,


   Luis
