VOI


voi | item / import()   list      debug
             export()   delete
             read       display
             write      inspect
             prefix() 
             select() 

Purpose

Handles input and output of Volumes of Interest (VOIs), that is, as a set of contours describing target volume and sensitive structures.

Parameters

item
For read:
Specifies a single or a comma-separated list of items, interpreted as stem(s) of file name(s) (without extension .VDX) containing VOI information. Lists of VOI files require the single files to be compatible (same base grid).
VOIs come as text data files (<file>.VDX ) together with a text header file (<file>.HED).
For export(), delete write, inspect:
Specifies a list of single existing VOIs. You use "*" for "all" VOIs.
import()
Not yet implemented.
select()
For read only: Specifies a (comma-separated) list of VOIs to be selected when the input file(s) are read. If multiple files are to be read a semicolon may be used to select different VOIs from different files.
export(fmt)
Exports current VOIs as specified by item in some other format. At present only gd is foreseen, to be plotted with the gd program. File naming convention:
<prefix><patient>voi.gd
read
Read VOIs as specified by item
write
Writes the current VOIs as specified by item. File naming convention:
<prefix><patient><vvv>.vdx
where normally <vvv>=000. If a CT exists with the same name stem and version number, <vvv> is incremented until uniqueness can be achieved. Beyond <vvv>=099 the command will fail.
prefix()
For export(), write: filename prefix.
list
Show some internal info about the currently loaded VOIs.
delete
Deletes the specified VOIs from memory (not from file).
display
Displays the specified VOIs. Not yet implemented.
inspect
Show some internal info about the specified VOIs.
debug
Debug switch. Lots of output !

Remark

The header files (.HED) are often shared between CT and VOI data.

Examples

voi OTTOT3000 / read
Reads VOI (files OTTOT3000.VDX and OTTOT3000.HED) for patient "OTTOT3".
voi target / export(gd) prefix(/tmp/)
Exports the single VOI target in gd format. Filename is /tmp/<patient>.voi.gd
voi cpd104,cdp401 /read select(boost,hirnstamm;rand)
Select the structures boost and hirnstamm from the file cpd104.vdx and rand from the file cdp401.vdx
