However, the function GetSum() seems to be multiplying the number of voxels by the integer value that I'm using for the segmentation. As an example, if I decide to give a value of 2 to the voxels which are part of the segmentation, then the voxels count will be the double of what it should really be, if I give a value of 3 it will the triple and so forth...Is this normal? Is there a way to fix it (apart from dividing by the value the voxels count)?</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you very much,</div><div>MIrco</div></div>_____________________________________<br>Powered by<span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.kitware.com/" target="_blank">www.kitware.com</a><br><br>Visit other Kitware open-source projects at<br><a href="http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html" target="_blank">http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html</a><br><br>Kitware offers ITK Training Courses, for more information visit:<br><a href="http://www.kitware.com/products/protraining.php" target="_blank">http://www.kitware.com/products/protraining.php</a><br><br>Please keep messages on-topic and check the ITK FAQ at:<br><a href="http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_FAQ" target="_blank">http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_FAQ</a><br><br>Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe:<br><a href="http://www.itk.org/mailman/listinfo/insight-users" target="_blank">http://www.itk.org/mailman/listinfo/insight-users</a></div></blockquote></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div></div> </div></body>
