\section org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationutilitiesManualOverview Overview
The Multilabel Segmentation Utilities View allows to postprocess existing segmentations. Currently five different operations exist:
- \ref org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesBooleanOperations
- \ref org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesMorphologicalOperations
- \ref org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesSurfaceToImage
- \ref org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesImageMasking
- \ref org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesConvertToMultiLabel
\section org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesDataSelection Data Selection
All postprocessing operations provide one or more selection widgets, which allow to select the data for the operation.
\section org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesBooleanOperations Boolean Operations
Boolean operations allows to perform the following fundamental operations on two segmentations:
- Difference: Subtracts the second segmentation from the first segmentation.
- Intersection: Extracts the overlapping areas of the two selected segmentations.
- Union: Combines the two existing segmentations.
The selected segmentations must have the same geometry (size, spacing, ...) in order for the operations to work correctly.
The result will be stored in a new data node as a child node of the first selected segmentation.

\section org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesMorphologicalOperations Morphological operations
Morphological operations are applied to a single segmentation image. Based on a given structuring element the underlying segmentation will be modfied.
The plugin provides a ball and a cross as structuring elements. The follow operations are available:
- Dilation: Each labeled pixel within the segmentation will be dilated based on the selected structuring element.
- Erosion: Each labeled pixel within the segmentation will be eroded based on the selected structuring element.
- Opening: A dilation followed by an erosion, used for smoothing edges or eliminating small objects.
- Closing: An erosion followed by an dilation, used for filling small holes.
- Fill Holes: Fills bigger holes within a segmentation.

\section org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesSurfaceToImage Surface to image
Surface to image allows to create a segmentation out of a given surface.
The operation requires a surface and a reference image.
The created segmentation image will have the same geometrical properties like the reference image (dimension, size and Geometry3D).
+Depending on the selected mode ("make output binary" or "overwrite background")
+the result will be a simple image or a binary image.

\section org_mitk_views_multilabelsegmentationUtilitiesImageMasking Image masking
Image masking allows to mask an image with either an existing segmentation or a surface.
The operation requires an image and a binary image mask or a surface.
The result will be an image containing only the pixels that are covered by the respective mask.
+Depending on the selected mode ("make output binary" or "overwrite foreground" / "overwrite background")
+the result will be a simple image or a binary image.
