[vtkusers] High memory cost of vtkDecimatePro for 3D model generation from DICOM series

[Liu_tj]

Hi, David,

What usage of vtkReverseSense in your sample code?

Thanks

And I should add: if it is necessary to use a range (instead of just a lower threshold), then the pipeline can use vtkMarchingCubes twice:


vtkSmartPointer<vtkMarchingCubes> cubes1 = vtkSmartPointer<vtkMarchingCubes>::New();

cubes1->SetInputData(imagedata);
cubes1->SetValue(0, lowerThreshold);


vtkSmartPointer<vtkMarchingCubes> cubes2 = vtkSmartPointer<vtkMarchingCubes>::New();

cubes2->SetInputData(imagedata);
cubes2->SetValue(0, upperThreshold);


vtkSmartPointer<vtkReverseSense> reverse = vtkSmartPointer<vtkReverseSense>::New();

reverse->SetInputConnection(cubes2->GetOutputPort());


vtkSmartPointer<vtkAppendPolyData> surface = vtkSmartPointer<vtkAppendPolyData>::New();

surface->SetInputConnection(cubes1->GetOutputPort());
surface->AddInputConnection(cubes2->GetOutputPort());

surface->Update();

Hi Liu Peng,


For creating a model, it is common to allow the user to set just a lower threshold (rather than a range), and to use the lower threshold as the isovalue.  If you send the code for the whole pipeline, that might help.

Hi, David,

If I don't use vtkImageThreshol, how to generate 3D model from the points whose grayscale is in some specific range? This range can be changed by the user.

Thanks

Hi,David,

If using vtkImageThreshold before vtkMarchingCubes is not a good option, what other better way do you have?



The output of the reader should go directly into vtkMarchingCubes.
   
Beside, for the isovalue, I try 2,3,4 and marched->GetNumberOfPoints() return 0, only isovalue is 1 and marched->GetNumberOfPoints() return a number greater than 0. I have no idea this is relating to the DICOM series or other problem.



If you remove vtkImageThreshold, and put the output of the reader directly into vtkMarchingCubes, then you should be able to use an isovalue somewhere between 100 and 2000 and get a good result.  


Also, after vtkMarchingCubes, you can use vtkConnectivityFilter to clean up the polydata before you decimate it.
