Hello, I would like to segment a bottle geometry from the DICOM file and save it as a vtk file. I started with “Segment Editor” and “Crop Volume” but the 3D slicer works super slow. Can you please help me to find the best way/modules for this purpose? Many thanks (download link removed on request…

Comments on the performed steps: Volumes: click on “Center Volume”/magnifying all views → OK Volume Rendering: changing the ROI/ click on “Display ROI” → do not use volume rendering, because it will occlude your segmentation; if you want to show volume rendering to get an idea of what is in the im…

The image size is 512 x 512 x 692, so it is not very large. If you have something like 4GB free RAM then all operations should be quite fast. On my 3-year-old computer (8th-gen Intel Core i7, 32GB RAM) segmentation takes a couple of seconds in Segment Editor module. Please provide detailed descript…

Hi Lassoan, Thank you for your prompt respond. I’ve tried to clean up my system and I believe it works faster now (3D Slicer 5.0.3). However, I like to describe the steps I did: Volumes: click on “Center Volume”/magnifying all views Volume Rendering: changing the ROI/ click on “Display ROI” Crop…

sounds perfect… the bottle has been segmented in a few seconds as you said byThreshold effect. I appreciate your support.
