<div>You could use vtkImageReslice to compute MPR's. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The class is capable of taking in a transform (see SetResliceTransform) to resample an image. You could construct a vtkCylindricalTransform and set it as the resample your image using the transform. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Then extract a slice, again using vtkImageReslice. See SetResliceAxesDirectionCosines. This should produce your cylindrical MPR.</div>

<div>It would be nicer to have a curved MPR widget though in VTK, where the curve is specified via landmarks. We do see potential applications in dental imaging.<br><br>-- <br>Karthik Krishnan<br>R&D Engineer,<br>Kitware Inc.
