Hi Ali,
Please find attached two example programs that will:
1) Extract an iso-surface from an ITK-generated image
and
2) Generate a screenshot from that iso-surface
(or visualize it interactively).
These two files can also be found in:
InsightApplications/Auxiliary/vtk/
ScreenShotGenerator.cxx
ExtractIsoSurface.cxx
http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/Auxiliary/vtk/ExtractIsoSurface.cxx?root=InsightApplications&sortby=date&view=log
http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/Auxiliary/vtk/ScreenShotGenerator.cxx?root=InsightApplications&sortby=date&view=log
In order to compile them you also need the files:
InsightApplications/Auxiliary/vtk/
vtkKWImage.cxx
vtkKWImage.h
vtkKWImageIO.cxx
vtkKWImageIO.h
Once you build the executables, you can run them as:
./ExtractIsoSurface image.mha surface.vtp 128
where
A) "image.mha" is the segmented image
that you can save from SNAP.
No need to save the image as "raw" anymore,
please save the segmented image from SNAP
as a MetaImage, in this way you conserve
information about origin, spacing, orientation,
pixel type and image grid.
B) "surface.vtp" is the output surface
C) "128" is the iso-value at which the
surface will be extracted. Typically, this is
the iso-value that you want to use, given that
segmented images are usually encoded with
the two values : 0 and 255.
However, in the particular case of SNAP, the
segmentation is encoded in an image of pixel
type "unsigned char" with values : 0 and 1.
Therefore, for segmentation images generated
from SNAP, you should use an iso-valule of "0.5"
In summary you want to use:
./ExtractIsoSurface snap.mha snap.vtp 0.5
The second executable can be run as:
./ScreenShotGenerator snap.vtp image.jpg text 0
where
1) snap.vtp is the filename of the surface that
you just extracted from the segmentation
2) image.jpg is the output file name to save a screenshot
3) "text" is a textual annotation to include in the screenshot
4) the value "1" (or "0") sets whether the visualization is
interactive or not. If you set "1" you will be able to move
the surface around with the mouse. If you set it to "0"
the program will simply generate a screenshot and it
will quit immediately.
--
Note that the process of extracting the iso-surface also
corrects the positions of points in physical space.
This is necessary because vtkImageData doesn't take
into account the image orientation stored in the itk::Image,
therefore the points resulting from an iso-contour extraction
must be mapped back to the native coordinate system
of the image.
Please give it a try at this code and let us know if you
find any problems,
Thanks
Luis
