Module Description

The Contours module manages contours and contour hierarchies.

Use Cases

• Load as ribbon, then compute DVH; the user wants to see the contours in 3D
• Edit contour 1, edit contour 2; see contour 1 while editing contour 2
• Create contour node, convert it to (empty) labelmap; do contouring on the labelmapo representation; convert to model
• Create/load labelmap or surface, create Contour node from that in Patient Hierarchy module

Panels and their use

• Current contour(s): Currently selected contour node (vtkMRMLContourNode) or conotur hierarchy node (vtkMRMLContourHierarchyNode)

• Change active representation: This box contains controls to convert from one representation to another
