[vtkusers] How get Binary data of vtkimagedata.

[Francois Louis LAILLIER]

Thanks' David for your help.

I want to put the data in non Vtk Object like a list or array, if
possible, by using a double for boucle.

Example:

For (i=0 to length)
	For (j=0 to height)
		Array(i,j)=DATAARRAY(x,y) // How do that.
	J++
I++

Array it is non Vtk object.

Thanks' for your future help!

Best regards, Francois Louis.

Hi Francois,

The vtkImageWriter will write an image as a raw binary file. Depending 
on what software you will use to read the .bin image, you might have to 
use vtkImageShiftScale to convert the data to the correct scalar type 
(unsigned char, short, unsigned short) before you write the data with 
vtkImageWriter.

To access the data directly without writing it to disk, you can use
this:

// "image" is a vtkImageData
image->Update();
vtkDataArray *array = image->GetPointData()->GetScalars();

This will give you the vtkDataArray that contains all of the voxel
values.

In vtkImageData, the pixel values are associated with the "points" in 
the data set. The "CellData" is never used in a vtkImageData.
