[Insight-users] importing/saving 3D meshes in ITK?

[C.Cagatay Bilgin]

Hi Michael,

You can read and write STL files by using
vtkSTLReader and vtkSTLWriter classes.
Then you can use the VTK to ITK pipelines
to move back and forth. Have a look at
https://mri.radiology.uiowa.edu/mediawiki/index.php/Compiling_Your_First_VTK_Program
for a reader and writer example

Regards,
Cagatay Bilgin
