Purpose

The CSOToSurface module allows to create a WEM surface mesh from CSOs (contours). This module basically does the same as a CSOVoxelizeContours followed by a WEMIsoSurface, but works more efficiently because it works on a sparse voxel grid internally. The CSOs should be aligned in X/Y orientation of the reference input image and should be located on the Z slices. The module will generate surfaces for arbitrary CSOs, but if you want to get a nice closed surface, the CSOs should lie exactly on the slices of the reference image.

If you need more control over the surface creation, you will have to switch to CSOVoxelizeContours and WEMIsoSurface.
