Good morning, I have a doubt as to the extensions that the program can upload. In my case I need to load a cartesian volume file with .vol extension to edit it and convert it into a 3D STL model. Is it possible to do this with 3D Slicer?

I inspected many images and tried to find a logical explanation of how various inputs contributed to the reconstructed output. It was quite fun, like solving a riddle.

Hi András, would you be able to share the transferred files used for this model?

See download link in this post above .

Continuing the discussion from Loading of GE/Kretz ultrasound volumes (.vol file) : HI, i have a problem :frowning: -i tried importing sample data(s) shared in this discussion, -i was able to load DICOME samples. -i am not able to import 4DUltrasound sample, (even after re-saving as 3d Cart volu…

[image] shaeshaenee: i am using 3dslicer 4.8.0 Slicer-4.8 only supported spherical volumes. As far as I remember, current Slicer version supports rectilinear volumes, too. Slicer-4.8 is more than 2 years old. Slicer is constantly being improved with new features and fixes, so if you use such…

Hi Andras, Thanks a lot for your sharing. I had learned a lot from you post. As you had mentioned in many post that GE may have private fileds in their DICOM ( dcm file ) , indeed!, I had followed your instruction to upload to GE’s 4D view v 10.5 ( per link in your Gitbub post ) , I successfully …

I remember answering this question somewhere (maybe in another topic or forum) but cannot find it. Anyway, I could load both images without any problems by installing latest Slicer Preview Release (4.11, rev 29009) and SlicerHeart extension, then importing and loading them in DICOM module.

Yes, you had helped me. with the latest verison 4.11.-4-19 works fine. Thanks again.

A very good ITK based example: https://github.com/plooney/kretz . If you use 4D images, the ‘number of frames’ could be obtained in tag (0xd400, 0x0001).

Hi, Thank you Andras for putting all the work into this! Exactly what I was looking for! One question, is the github link for GE’s API files ( https://github.com/GEUltrasound/GE_CVUS_Loader/releases/ ) still in working order? I get a 404 error message but is that due to the fact that GE hasnt accep…
