Scan Misaligned with Global Coordinate System

Hello,

I have a question regarding the following image:

When I load DICOM data, it is not aligned with the global coordinate system. I’m new to 3D Slicer and have looked at some yt videos about transforms but haven’t found a similar issue.
Any help would be much appreciated!

That’s normal. It just means the scan was acquired with a rotation to follow the anatomy.

Thank you very much for your reply. Is there a way to fix this misalignment?

This is not a misalignment to fix, this is just how this dataset was acquired. Why do you want to rotate it?

I am looking to align my scan to the global coordinate system as well.

At first I thought the SliceriGT fiducial registration module would work for my use case, however, I have not found a way for the module to align to the global coordinate system instead.

The reason I would like to align to the global coord system is so that I can use the “scissors effect” from the “Segment Editor module” to slice of extra parts of a segment that was created using the “Threshold effect.”
