[Insight-users] Manual Tracing in ITK

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Gaurav,


ITK itself doesn't provide functionalities
for User Interaction or Visualization.


You may want to look into

A)  VTK
     In particular 3DWidgets and 2DWidgets.

     and maybe post your question to
     the VTK users list.

or

B)  Using Slicer,

      You could

        1) load your volume in Slicer,
        2) Select the "Editor" Module
        3) Select "Create Label Map" from (select your image)
        4) In "Select label map to edit"
            select your new label map
        5) The use the multiple draw options:

              - Paint (the icon with a paintbrush)
              - Draw (the icon with a pencil)
              - LevelTracing (the icon with a contour)
              - Erase (the icon with the eraser)

        6) Save the label as a binary mask
        7) Generate an iso-surface around it.
            (what is called a Model in Slicer).

        You may get further assistance in the
        Slicer-users mailing list.


  C)  ITK-SNAP  (InsightApplications)

       Provides some functionalities for
       manual segmentation.



  Regards,


         Luis
