[Insight-users] 3D volume DICOM

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Aditva,

You may want to use the MetaImage file format
 to save the resulting 3D image.

Simply use the extension ".mhd".

You will be able to open this file format
and then visualize the image with:

* Slicer (www.slicer.org)
* Paraview (www.paraview.org)
* ITK-SNAP (http://www.itksnap.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php)
* The ImageViewer application in InsightApplications.

--

If you plan to do image registration, you
should read the "Image Registration"
chapter of the ITK Software Guide:

http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf.

and look a the many examples in the
directory:

    Insight/Examples/Registration

For 3D, you want to look at

       ImageRegistration8.cxx



    Regards,


           Luis
