NAME

       mia-3disosurface-from-stack - Extract an ist-surface froma a 3D image.

SYNOPSIS

       mia-3disosurface-from-stack -i <in-image> -o <out-mesh> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-3disosurface-from-stack  This  program  is  used  to extract an iso-surface from the input gray scale
       image given as slices.

OPTIONS

   File-IO
              -i --in-image=(required)
                     input image filename pattern

              -o --out-mesh=(required)
                     output mesh

   Help & Info
              -V --verbose=warning
                     verbosity of output, print  messages  of  given  level  and  higher  priorities.  Supported
                     priorities starting at lowest level are:
                        info ‐ Low level messages
                        warning ‐ Warnings
                        error ‐ Report errors
                        fail ‐ Report test failures
                        message ‐ Normal messages
                        fatal ‐ Report only fatal errors

              -h --help
                     print this help

              -? --usage
                     print a short help

                 --version
                     print the version number and exit

   Image options
              -s --iso-value=128
                     iso-value of iso surface to be extracted

   Mesh options
              -f --max-faces=-1
                     maximum number of Faces,

              -e --max-edges=-1
                     maximum number of Edges

              -c --max-cost=0.1
                     maximum cost for edge collaps

              -r --ratio=4
                     ratio of faces(edges) to target number, at which  the optimization changes from edge-length
                     to volume-optimized

              -w --reverse-winding
                     reverse the winding of the triangles in order to make normals  point  away  from  the  high
                     intensity area

   Processing
                 --threads=-1
                     Maxiumum  number  of  threads to use for processing,This number should be lower or equal to
                     the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1: automatic estimation).

EXAMPLE

       Extract the surface from an image set with numbers imageXXXX.png that corresponds to  the  value  30  and
       stop optimizing when the mesh consists of less than 100000 triangles.

       mia-3disosurface-from-stack -i image0000.png -o mesh.vmesh -s 30 -f 100000
