Introduction

The 3D viewer uses a set of stock VTK display elements to allow the user to view, and manipulate, the selected images. There is a main display showing each volume according to their designated display intent (modifiable via the Image Type control of the Layer Information Dialog) as follows:

UnknownNot displayed
Main imageDisplayed as a surface with optional cut-aways to reveal the image data and any other images within.
