[vtkusers] Create an approximate cross-section of a RT ROI

[Xiaofeng Z]

Scott,

 

What I did is to transform the contour using the inverse of the reslice axies as the transform matrix, works pretty well in transversal!  Should work in the other orientation too.

> I got around that problem, but now I've moved to using vtkImageReslice for creating the other slice orientations and the ROI slice is floating out in space away from the images. It works fine for the axial but sagittal, coronal, and oblique slices of the ROI are in the wrong location.
