[vtkusers] question ? [vtkContourFilter & vtkMarchingCubes]

[Cory Quammen]

vtkContourFilter is typically better to use IMHO.

- it is multithreaded
- it handles more kinds of input data volumes

For a binary 3D image, you might prefer to use vtkDiscreteMarchingCubes (
http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkDiscreteMarchingCubes.html).
