<h2><b>Rat uterus meshes</b></h2><h3><b>General information</b></h3><p dir="ltr">This item contains surface and volumetric meshes of the rat uterus. They were generated from the muscle segmentation of uCT images. The rat was in the oestrus phase of its cycle.</p><h3><b>Contents</b></h3><ul><li>The <b>AWA015_PTA_1_Rec_Trans_surface_mesh.stl </b>and <b>AWA015_PTA_1_Rec_Trans_surface_mesh.vtk</b> meshes are exported directly from ITK-SNAP (www.itksnap.org).</li><li>The <b>AWA015_PTA_1_Rec_Trans_surface_mesh.stl</b> mesh was edited in Meshmixer 3.5.474 (Autodesk, Inc.) to correct issues in the surface mesh to generate a volumetric mesh. The exported file is <b>AWA015_PTA_1_Rec_Trans_surface_mesh_fixed.stl.</b></li><li>The <b>AWA015_PTA_1_Rec_Trans_volumetric_mesh.vtk</b> was generated with Netgen (https://ngsolve.org/) from the fixed surface mesh.</li><li>The <b>AWA015_PTA_1_Rec_Trans_volumetric_mesh_annotated.vtk</b> is annotated with the thickness information obtained from the segmentation masks.</li></ul><h3><b>Visualisation</b></h3><p dir="ltr">The .vtk files can be viewed with software such as Paraview (https://www.paraview.org/). The .exnode and .exelem files exist for the original surface mesh exported from ITK-SNAP and the annotated volumetric mesh to be visualised in cmgui.</p>
