[vtkusers] Question to 3D Slicer users/experts

[Jeremie Anquez]

Hi Habby,

you're right, slicer is not able to read a single file. You have 2 ways to 
read your data. You can preprocess your data in order to get the slices set.
Otherwise, you can do it in slicer, adding a new reader (i had to create one 
recently). To do so, check the reading process, reading Volumes.tcl, 
Main.tcl and MainVolumes.tcl and VolAnalyze.tcl (<- this is one of the 
readers).
Then, study the cxx sources in CISGFile module (Analyze reader), to know more 
about the objects to use to store data (vtkStructuredPoints, vtkDataArray).
Finally, insert a new module, following the process described in 
vtkCustomModule.

PS : if your data is close from slicer raw data, you can check as well the 
way that kind of data (basic) is read. This is done in 
slicer2/Base/tcl/tcl-modules/Volumes/VolBasic.tcl
