Re: [Paraview] DICOM series reader for Paraview

Hi, if you intend to use a DICOM reader in Paraview, why not using directly GDCM, instead of ITK? It contains a VTK Reader... If I am right, you will just have to write the XML/CMake files that make the reader available in Paraview. In my case, I use the vtkDICOMImageReader, that is a very simple

Hi everyone. I am wondering if anyone know how to integrate a ITK(GDCM) based DICOM reader to Paraview? My basic idea is: 1. Read DICOM series data through ITK(GDCM) 2. Export the data to a vtkImageImport class 3. Use the data in vtkImageImport as a source of Paraview I have done the first two step

I am afraid not. You can convert it to unstructured grid using tetrahedralization and volume render that. Alternatively you can resample it to a uniform rectilinear grid (image data). I can explain how to do that if you want. -berk On Wed, Feb 4, 2009 at 2:59 PM, Weiguang Guan wrote: > Hello, >

You need the DISPLAY environment variable because the standard way to get a gfx context on *nix is through an X server. To create an off-screen rendering context you first have to connect to an X server. It is also a convenient way to specify which GPU you want to use if a system has more than
