i’m trying to find the average vertical distance (along the y-axis) between two curves in 3d space.
basically, i want to measure how far apart the two curves are in the y-direction — not the full 3d distance, just the offset along the y-axis. the curves are already defined, and i’d like to compute this average y-difference between them.
is there a good way to do this, either in 3d slicer or with python/numpy?
Yes, you can do this in python. Just get the points from the two curves and subtract and look at the y (axis). If you need more detail you can resample in the markups module.
