I am trying to reconstruct a 3d medical image from 2d images with spacial coordinates. Can I Do? How can I do in VTK?

you are trying to segment bone/tissue from DICOM images?

if this is what you mean, you need set your image folder path to a reader. such as vtkDICOMreader. From here you can pass this into a \ reader that can segment the put normals and gradients on. and set a value, then render the poly.

You can use the VTK-based [PLUS toolkit](https://www.plustoolkit.org) to reconstruct 3D volume from 2D slices. There are many reconstruction options, hole filling, automatic fan detection for ultrasound, etc. You can use the [command-line VolumeReconstructor tool](http://perk-software.cs.queensu.ca/plus/doc/nightly/user/ApplicationVolumeReconstructor.html), a [3D Slicer](https://www.slicer.org) module with GUI (Volume Reconstructor module, in [SlicerIGSIO extension](https://github.com/IGSIO/SlicerIGSIO)), or you can build from source and use the library in your application (everything is free, open-source, with BSD-type license).
