3D visualisation techniques from labelMap

Hi,

Do you know some 3d visualisation methods to convert a label Map to 3d closed surface apart marching cubes. I need some suggestions according to your experiences please. Can you tell me some ideas or techniques ?

Thank’s in advance

I would recommend to import your labelmap into a segmentation node. Segmentation can be displayed directly in 3D (closed surface is automatically generated and smoothed and kept up-to-date if the labelmap is edited). Slicer uses VTK’s flying edge method, which is a faster, parallelized isosurface extraction method; followed by smoothing (using vtkWindowedSincPolyDataFilter) to reduce staircase artifacts. You may also apply various smoothing and noise filtering methods on the labelmap in Segment Editor.
