Hello Hooman,<br>
<br>
Are your 3D medical images in structured points (3D volume) format or
polydata (geometry) format? If they are polygonal data then you can try
out PolyView - an application / ActiveX control that Kitware should be
releasing tomorrow. You can read vtk polydata and write Wavefront OBJ
files. <br>
<br>
If your data is volumetric, then you'll need to create surfaces from it
to write it into Wavefront format I believe (does OBJ support volumes?).
If you need to create surfaces you might want to try out VolView
(<a href="http://www.kitware.com/products/volview.html" eudora="autourl">http://www.kitware.com/products/volview.html</a>).
You can load vtk structured points data files and create surfaces (in VTK
or STL format - but you can then use PolyView to convert that to OBJ).

I have several medical 3D images which are in VTK format. I need to get
them into import them into Wavefront to perform further modelling and
animation. Unfortunately, my programming knowledge is very limited. Is
there an easy way to take advantage of VTKOBJEporter to perform the
conversion? If I need to install the entire VTK program, what is the
simplest way of doing so?<br>
<br>
I appreciate any help!<br>
