Module Description

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

Use Cases

GUI panel

Surface model overlaid on reference image with generated label map shown in purple on 2d slices

• This module may be thought of as the inverse of Marching Cubes.
• It is useful if you only have a surface model and wish to do volumetric processing on an image

Parameters:

• Settings
  • Sample distance: Sample distance
• IO
  • Input Volume: Input volume
  • Model: Model
  • Output Volume: The label volume

Input/Output panels. This module takes three input: Input Volume is the reference volume. Model is the surface model from whose interior is to be labeled as foreground, and Output Volume is the output label map. Output Volume has the same image parameters (size, resolution, orientation, etc) as Input Volume.

Parameters panels. Since surface can be very sparsely triangulated, this module first resamples the input surface model in an appropriate resolution. The parameter Sample Distance controls how fine the surface is sampled. The ballpark value for this parameter is the smallest size of voxels (in mm) in Input Volume.
