I’ve seen a lot of python scripts that use existing segment editor effects, but is there a way to directly access segment data and volume data from python to implement prototype segmentation algorithms? Or is that something that’s better done via C++?
I’m positive there are probably pointers to how to do this in the docs…
Contribution of new Segment Editor effects would be very welcome! You can implement Segment Editor effects either in C++ or Python. There is a template for Python-scripted segment editor effect in the Extension wizard and you can use all the current Segment Editor effects as examples of how to implement your own effect - see in Slicer core and in SegmentEditorExtraEffects extension.
