[Insight-users] writing a 3D volume to a file

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Smriti,

The file format that you need for visualization
depends of course on the visualization software
that you plan to use.

Options for visualization software are for example

   - Slicer
   - VolView
   - ParaView
   - SNAP

Slicer, ParaView and SNAP will read MetaImage,

Slicer and SNAP will read Analyze format and VTK.

A full list of the file formats supported in ITK
is available in the FAQ

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_FAQ#What_3D_file_formats_can_ITK_import_and_export.3F



What visualization software do you plan to use ?


What fileformats can this software read ?



     Regards,


        Luis

gone through the literature that is in the software guide. However, I am
still not clear on what format should the file be if I want to store a
3D volume and then display it. I am able to read the 2D DICOM slices and
then the program also converts it into a 3D volume but I don't know what
file format to assign this volume to so that I can open this volume
image using a 3D visualization software. I tried using jpg and png
formats but that didn't work.
