Not that straightforward. For the PanX, you'll have to reformat the<br>
image data along a curved reconstruction line that runs on the<br>
mandibular canal. I guess you'll have to estimate that curved path<br>
from your marching cubes result. You'll also have to estimate the<br>
thickness of the pan from it.. Or you could use a widget such as the<br>
contour widget to specify the reformat line.<br>
<br>
We do have thick planar reformat, but don't have thick curved reformat<br>
capabilities in VTK, although it should be possible to add it with<br>
some effort.<br></blockquote><div> <br>FYI, it looks like MITK (the Medical Imaging Integration Toolkit) does support curved MPRs<br>(<a href="http://search.gmane.org/?query=curved+mpr&group=gmane.comp.lib.mitk.user">http://search.gmane.org/?query=curved+mpr&group=gmane.comp.lib.mitk.user</a>).<br>
Perhaps it might help.<br><br>My two cents,<br><br>Frederic Perez<br></div></div>
