Module Description

TransformVisualizerLogo.png

The Transform Visualizer module visualizes transforms using various options. The module can visualize any transform (linear transform, B-spline deformable transform, any other non-linear transform) or vector volume.

Use Cases

  • Visualize deformation fields
  • Visualize vector volumes
  • Visualize transforms
Transform Visualizer module UI with glyph visualization mode active
Transform Visualizer modes

Panels and their use

  • IO
    • Input
      • Deformation: The deformation which will be visualized. The deformation can be represented as either a vector volume or a transform (linear or non-linear) with a reference image.
      • Reference Image: The reference image to be used with a selected transform to generate a deformation field. Enabled only when a transform is selected as the input deformation. The deformation field will be generated when both a valid deformation and a reference image are selected.
    • Output
      • Output Model: A model to be selected or created that will contain the output.
  • Visualization Mode
    • Glyph: Generates glyphs oriented to the vector direction and scaled to the vector magnitude
    • Grid: Generates a cube grid that is warped by the deformation field
    • Block: Generates a rectangular model that is then warped by the deformation field
    • Contour: Generates isosurfaces according to the vector magnitudes of the deformation field
    • Glyph Slice: Projects the deformation field to a chosen slice view and generates glyphs oriented to the vector direction and scaled to the vector magnitude
    • Grid Slice: Projects the deformation field to a chosen slice view and generates a cube grid that is warped by the deformation field
  • Parameters
    • Glyph Options
      • Number of Glyphs: Number of randomly placed glyphs to create
      • Magnitude Threshold: Only vectors with a magnitude within the specified range will be represented with a glyph
      • Scaling
        • Scale Factor: Multiplier for size of glyph relative to vector magnitude
        • Directional Scaling: Scale glyph only along the vector direction
        • Isotropic Scaling: Scale glyph in all directions
      • Source: Model to be used as the glyph model; arrow, cone, and sphere are available and each have their own respective options
      • Random Seed: Seed used for random placement of glyphs
    • Grid Options
      • Scale Factor: Multiplier for the scale of the deformation
      • Spacing: Line spacing used to generate a cube grid
    • Block Options
      • Scale Factor: Multiplier for the scale of the deformation
    • Contour Options
      • Number of Contours: Number of contours to generate between the specified range values
      • Range: Range to create contours within
      • Decimate: Target decimation as a decimal percentage reduction in polygons (0 results in no decimation whereas 0.99 results in a target of 99% reduction in polygons)
    • Glyph Slice Options
      • Slice: Slice view to orient and project the glyphs to
      • Number of Glyphs: Number of randomly placed glyphs to create in total
      • Magnitude Threshold: Only vectors with a magnitude within the specified range will be represented with a glyph
      • Scale Factor: Multiplier for size of glyph relative to vector magnitude
      • Random Seed: Seed used for random placement of glyphs
    • Grid Slice Options
      • Slice: Slice view to orient and project the glyphs to
      • Scale Factor: Multiplier for size of glyph relative to vector magnitude
      • Spacing: Line spacing used to generate a square grid
