The crash was due to a bug in VTK that I’ve fixed a couple of months ago, but that fix was not yet backported into Slicer’s VTK. I’ve now [backported it](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/commit/396c8e5d0ac6bcacf413103c3cb358211a9d5d8c), so centerline extraction will work robustly in Slicer Preview Release that you download on 2023-03-19 or later.
