generate a tetrahedral mesh from DICOM data for the purpose of finite
element analysis.

VTK is not a mesh generation system. It's primary purpose is
visualization. Some posts have suggested alternative systems for
finite element mesh generation. Please review those e-mails.

Please stop asking the same questions over and over using multiple
email addresses.
