[vtkusers] Fill contours with Pixels

[Mike Jackson]

I have a 3D triangle mesh that I am trying to close the "Holes" on.  
This mesh is pretty complex and although I have searched the archives  
I have not found anything that has worked out. The main problem being  
that a "contour" line can traverse 2 or more planes.
    So what I was thinking was to extract the contour loops just at  
the boundary surface. This gives nice loops. Now if I could somehow  
"fill" those loops with solid pixels, convert the whole thing to a  
voxel volume, I believe I have a way to "extract surface" of the new  
voxel volume, triangulate it, than append and merge to the original  
mesh. I have used this type of technique before with good success. I  
just need to fill the interiors of loops with a solid color.
   Are there any filters that might do this? Anything in ITK? I'll  
ask on that list next.

Thanks
