@D_S: Hello! Has anyone ever overlaid a mesh / 2D image on top of a DICOM slice here? We’ve been doing it ourself with SimpleITK + modifying the voxel data but this all feels very messy. Something like this, but perhaps considering a multi-slice overlay?
@Bill_Wallace: Yes, in fact there is support for DICOM image overlays in CS3D, and a sample image set in the OHIF viewer that enables the image overlay to display.
All of this can be done with the SVG overlays as well, and those preserve the semantics of the data but not the exact appearance.
@D_S: Does this allow 3D overlays rather than single plane?
Here is an example from some python/matplotlib code: we load in a mesh, apply a transform, voxelize it, and then overlay it on the DICOM slices.
