Detailed Description

generate isosurface(s) from volume four slices at a time

vtkSliceCubes is a special version of the marching cubes filter. Instead of ingesting an entire volume at once it processes only four slices at a time. This way, it can generate isosurfaces from huge volumes. Also, the output of this object is written to a marching cubes triangle file. That way, output triangles do not need to be held in memory.

To use vtkSliceCubes you must specify an instance of vtkVolumeReader to read the data. Set this object up with the proper file prefix, image range, data origin, data dimensions, header size, data mask, and swap bytes flag. The vtkSliceCubes object will then take over and read slices as necessary. You also will need to specify the name of an output marching cubes triangle file.

Warning
This process object is both a source and mapper (i.e., it reads and writes data to a file). This is different than the other marching cubes objects (and most process objects in the system). It's specialized to handle very large data.
This object only extracts a single isosurface. This compares with the other contouring objects in vtk that generate multiple surfaces.
To read the output file use vtkMCubesReader.

Member Function Documentation

static vtkSliceCubes* vtkSliceCubes::New ( )
static

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual const char* vtkSliceCubes::GetClassName ( )
virtual

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

static int vtkSliceCubes::IsTypeOf ( const char *  name)
static

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual int vtkSliceCubes::IsA ( const char *  name)
virtual

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

static vtkSliceCubes* vtkSliceCubes::SafeDownCast ( vtkObject o)
static

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

void vtkSliceCubes::PrintSelf ( ostream &  os,
vtkIndent  indent 
)
virtual

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

void vtkSliceCubes::Update ( )
virtual void vtkSliceCubes::SetReader ( vtkVolumeReader )
virtual

Set/get object to read slices.

virtual vtkVolumeReader* vtkSliceCubes::GetReader ( )
virtual

Set/get object to read slices.

virtual void vtkSliceCubes::SetFileName ( const char *  )
virtual

Specify file name of marching cubes output file.

virtual char* vtkSliceCubes::GetFileName ( )
virtual

Specify file name of marching cubes output file.

virtual void vtkSliceCubes::SetValue ( double  )
virtual

Set/get isosurface contour value.

virtual double vtkSliceCubes::GetValue ( )
virtual

Set/get isosurface contour value.

virtual void vtkSliceCubes::SetLimitsFileName ( const char *  )
virtual

Specify file name of marching cubes limits file. The limits file speeds up subsequent reading of output triangle file.
