Hello,
I use "ITK SNAP" and I save my segmentation data choosing a VTK Image File
format.
Then, I read this data using vtkImageReader2 and when I process it using
vtkMarchingCube, it indicates that the dimension of this data is different
from 3.
I don't understand where the problem is .... any idea ??
Regards,
Marie Bonhoure
