Dear Everyone :<br><br>In my project, I construct a physical phantom composing of 12 plastic cones. I used a 3D ultrasound probe to scan this phantom and got its 3D ultrasound image. In order to find each tip of 12 cones in 3D ultrasound image, I want to construct a VTK model of 12 cones by vtkConeSource, and I can arrange 12 cones on different positions by different vtkActor for each cone, but I don't know which source or data type to save these 12 cones as one object. Because I want to use these 12 cones as one object to register extracted surface of 12 cones in 3D ultrasound image. Do anyone have ideas about combining 12 vtkConeSource as one object ? Also do you have any ideas about the registration between this one object and the extracted surface of 12 cones in 3D ultrasound image ?<br>
<br>Thank you very much for your advice!<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><br> ---------------------<br>Best Regards!<br><br>===============================================<br>Rong Xu, Ph.D Student<br>Ohya Lab<br>Graduate School of Global Information
