Module Description

This module creates a label map of the interior of an input model within a reference volume. The module first label voxels that intersects the surface as foreground, then use a flood fill to label all interior.

Usage

Examples, Use Cases & Tutorials

• This module may be thought of as the inverse of Marching Cubes.

Source code & documentation

Source Code: PolyDataToLabelmap.cxx

XML Description: PolyDataToLabelmap.xml

Test: PolyDataToLabelmapTest.cxx

Usage:

./PolyDataToLabelmap --help

USAGE: 

   ./PolyDataToLabelmap  [--returnparameterfile <std::string>]
                         [--processinformationaddress <std::string>]
                         [--xml] [--echo] [--distance <float>] [--]
                         [--version] [-h] <std::string> <std::string>
                         <std::string>


Where: 

   --returnparameterfile <std::string>
     Filename in which to write simple return parameters (int, float,
     int-vector, etc.) as opposed to bulk return parameters (image,
     geometry, transform, measurement, table).

   --processinformationaddress <std::string>
     Address of a structure to store process information (progress, abort,
     etc.). (default: 0)

   --xml
     Produce xml description of command line arguments (default: 0)

   --echo
     Echo the command line arguments (default: 0)

   --distance <float>
     Sample distance (default: 1)

   --,  --ignore_rest
     Ignores the rest of the labeled arguments following this flag.

   --version
     Displays version information and exits.

   -h,  --help
     Displays usage information and exits.

   <std::string>
     (required)  Input volume

   <std::string>
     (required)  Model

   <std::string>
     (required)  The label volume


   Description: Intersects an input model with an reference volume and
   produces an output label map.
