<div><font face="Arial" size="2"> Thanks for the Lesion Sizing
Toolkit. Since I do have very little experince on ITK before (just a
beginner), I just installed the ITK. From the link below, under the download
folder, <font face="Times New Roman" size="3">Source Code of the Toolkit (Stable
code) could not be found so far, while under the sourve code of
the Sandbox, I found lots of header files and txx files. I need to download
all the files under the sourcefile? then use cmake to generate the make file? Or
just need to download one pair, say, itkLungWallFeatureGenerator.h and
itkLungWallFeatureGenerator.txx. Only these two could finish one funtionality.
