==Project Description==
The '''CBC3DI2MConversion''' project generates a tetrahedral mesh from an input labeled image. The method consists of two modules:
* Body Centric Cubic (BCC) Mesh Generation
This module generates a Body Centric Cubic (BCC) mesh from a labeled image. Initially the generated mesh is homogeneous, that means does not distinguish different tissues.
Later the module specifies which tissue each tetrahedron belongs to. Each tissue is capable of automatically adjusting its resolution based on its geometric complexity and the
predefined subdivision criterion.
* Mesh Compression (MC)
This module deforms a tetrahedral mesh towards the boundaries of the labeled image. Two point sets are extracted for the mesh deformation. The first (source point set) consists of the exterior surface vertices of the input mesh. The second (target point set) consists of the exterior surface edge points in the input labeled image. Then the input mesh is deformed by registering the source to the target point set using a Physics-Based Non-Rigid Registration method.

<h3>Objective</h3>
* Develop an extension that implements the Image-To-Mesh Conversion.
* The extension encapsulates two CLI modules:
** BodyCentricCubic (BCC) mesh
** Mesh Compression (MC)
</div>
<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">
<h3>Approach, Plan</h3>
* The current version of the extension supports a single-tissue mesh generation.
* The future versions will support multi-tissue meshes.
</div>
<div style="width: 27%; float: left; padding-right: 3%;">
<h3>Progress</h3>
* The experimental-build of the extension has uploaded on MIDAS dashboard (http://slicer.kitware.com/midas3/item/142306).
* The documentation page for the extension has created in the wiki (http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation/Nightly/Extensions/ImageToMeshConversion).
* Three cases (brain, nidus and ventricles) are provided for testing.
