> Operating system: Windows 10 Slicer version: 4.8.1 Hi, I am attempting to segment the spinal vertebrae of a pig from CT images. The objective is to generate a surface model from the bone segmentation. The user will then perform a registration between the model and the pig (matching points on the model to the respective points on the pig’s spine) so that a surgical navigation system is in place. The region of interest is the spinous process (the pointy tip of the vertebra; enclosed in red) s…
When you have a question, please try to perform a search first, there are tons of materials available (for example the link to the topic and video above is also available form the [Training page](https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/Training#Segmentation)).

and so
i need a arithmetic algorithm , no already module …
