I think Slicer does work, but I didn't find it particularly easy to
use. Of course, many of these programs are not easy to use, Amira
(Avizo) being a case in point. And Mimics wouldn't even install, so I
guess it's the worst of all!
But being difficult to use doesn't mean an app is more powerful.
Apologies auto formatting add a . to the link address and made it

Paul,
ITK-Snap is a nice tool, but I am surprised you couldn't do what you wanted
to do in 3D Slicer as it is quite feature rich. As a comprehensive program,
Slicer does have a longer (but not necessarily any steeper) curve than
ITK-Snap. Our goal in SlicerMorph is to ease that curve. Here are

Hi Christy,

Although it isn't designed specifically to segment endocraniums, it
has several automatic algorithms that I've used to segment fossil
braincases automatically and it worked really well. You may have to
clean up the segmentation
Without the data it is hard to tell, but often those crashes are memory
related. Memory usage during segmentation increases 8-10 folds based on the
segmentation effect being used. So if your dataset is 2GB, you need minimum
of 16-20GB of "available" RAM for Slicer to work properly. If you can
Thanks so far for the suggestions everyone.
I tried using the SlicerMorph extension of 3D Slicer v. 5.3.0, but every
time I run it the program crashes. The DICOM file is about 2 GB, and I'm on
a powerful workstation that I regularly use for CT data segmention in
VGStudio Max. Has anyone else
Dear Christy,
2 freeware options:
You can do this in 3Dslicer using the extension Slicermorph's 'segment
endocranium' function (Slicer can obviously segment the original stacks
from a wide variety of sanners as well):
