[vtkusers] Lesion Sizing Toolkit.

[Karthik Krishnan]

Get the toolkit from SVN as

svn co https://www.kitware.com:8443/svn/LesionSizingKit/trunk
<https://www.kitware.com:8443/svn/LesionSizingKit/trunk/Toolkit>
LesionSizingKit

Configure using CMake. If you aren't familiar with this, I suggest you tke a
look at http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf

Build the toolkit itself. You will need to have ITK built.

Crop your dataset, to a region in the vicinity of the lesion.
After you do this, try running one of the segmentation methods. For
instance,

Sandbox/bin/itkLesionSegmentationMethodTest8b  SeedPointSpatialObject.txt
DataROI.mha Lesion.mha -500 -ResampleThickSliceData

Let us know if this works for you.
