Stacking the minimal surfaces leads to a first mesh

From the convex hull, contours are extracted using wrapping curves which follow the differential equation

In between two curves extracted from two sequential slices a minimal surface is computed

Starting from a slice of a CT scan bones and skin contours are extracted by thresholding


The first mesh is regularized using freeYams from by Pascal Frey
