> What I am doing is to have a boolean opertation between two cylinder created by MakerupToModel. But the segment resolution seems not very well even after “crop volume wih 0.01 spacing scale” just as suggestion: [Segmentation resolution](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/segmentation-resolution/1394/10).

What I am doing is improve the resolution for “import model as segment”  
Firstly, I need create a volume by python script…  
Secondly, I will porform crop volume, and then the model could be imported as a segment…Finally, the resolution for 3d reconstruction will be higher  
So, would you like to gvie me some advice to such a script? Thanks
