Hi,<br>
<br>
did you try shape based interpolation? It's not just an option in
ParaView but you would have to implement it e.g. using ITK as a
preprocessing step.<br>

</div>
<div>I have figured out how to create a surface from a file (using
contour). However, the surface ends up looking like a step
function, whereby the transitions are not smooth. I assume this
is because the file used to create the surface has a voxel
resolution that is coarse enough for these transitions are
obvious. However, I'd like to smooth the surface in some way,
to eliminate the obvious step transitions. I've tried the
smooth function, but that has minimal effect on my image. I've
also tried setting "compute normals" on the contour filter.
This does smooth the edges, but it doesn't eliminate the
obvious steps along the surface. Is there any way to smooth the
surface even more, perhaps by iterations of eroding and
dilating?</div>

<div>Any suggestions would be appreciated!</div>
