Create models from labeled volume data
This example creates polydata models from a 3D volume that contains discrete labels. These volume are normally the output of a segmentation algorithm. The polydata for each label will be output into a separate file. If you want to see the segmentation results as cube models, see the example Create cubes from labeled volume data. The input volume must be in META format.
Once you generate the models, you can view them with Paraview
