Could you please provides an example to reconstruct surface from some contours? #118

Could you please provides an example to reconstruct surface from some contours? The vtkPlanarContourToClosedSurfaceConversionRule seems to be a good choice, but I don't know how to run it. Moreover, the contours may not be parallel, and there may be a bifurcation. Could you please provide a demo about how to use the vtkPlanarContourToClosedSurfaceConversionRule? Thank you very much!

I'd advise against using the converter function in itself. It is part of the PolySeg infrastructure (you can read more about it in this PhD thesis), which drives the Segmentations and Segment Editor modules in 3D Slicer.

So I'd simply recommend to use 3D Slicer. It does the conversion automatically when you load a DICOM-RT Structure Set. If you have further questions please contact us on the Slicer forum: https://discourse.slicer.org/
