Summary0003039: Image resolution alters the quality of the volume rendering
Description

These are rendering from same dataset imported with image spacing 1,1,1, and 0.02, 0.02,0.02 (which is the actual spacing on the dataset).

Additional Information

Sorry turns out I can't upload two files. The other one is opaque with the identical settings, and shows the whole surface of the head with any of the internal structures.

TagsNo tags attached.

As a temporary work around, you can set ScalarOpacityUnitDistance on the VolumeProperty of the VolumePropertyNode.

I wasn't able to locate that option. I see X coordinate, opacity, mid point, sharpness but no ScalarOpacityUnitDistance

you need to set it via the python console

That's unfortunately beyond my experience with Slicer. Can you give me an idea or a pointer about how to set that in python interactor.

Simply typing ScalarOpacityUnitDistance= some value doesn't do anything for me.

You can use commands like this:

vpn = getNode('VolumeProp')
vp = vpn.GetVolumeProperty()
vp.SetScalarOpacityUnitDistance(3)
vp.SetScalarOpacityUnitDistance(.3)

Re-evaluate this after Slicer switches to VTK8.

@pinter @lassoan Do you know if this is still an issue with the latest Slicer ?

I confirm that it is fixed in the latest nightly version.

Verified by loading MRHead and setting spacing to [0.02,0.02,0.02]. In Slicer 4.8.1 volume renderer the image appears semi-transparent, while in latest nightly the image appears correctly (the same way as with the original spacing values).
