 * Source code updated to support VTK 5.0 instead of VTK 5.1. This change required that the histogram bin data is written as Field Data in a VTK file.
 * Meshing module is now built by default with Slicer3
-'''To Do:'''
+* This code was updated to integrate with the new meshing module. This should be available in Slicer3.4 release
-* We should remove the need for the surface extraction when Slicer3 supports the loading of unstructured grids.

		+	'''Description:'''
		+	This program will convert an image into a hexahedral mesh using
		+	the voxels as the hexahedral elements. This is is typically done
		+	for only a portion of the image and thus a binary image from a
		+	segmentation may be used to define the region for meshing.
		+	Since these meshes may be fairly large the user is allowed
		+	to downsample the image by an integer value. Currently this
		+	must be odd.
		+
		+	This tool was developed by Nicole Grosland, Vincent Magnotta, and Ritesh Bafna was developed as part of an NIH NA-MIC Collaboration Grant EB005973.
