fill_contour does not exist

[wantinghuang]

Hi, in tutorial.ipynb, it mentioned fill_contour in FILLING CONTOUR ARRAYS section. This function does not exist in dicom_contour.contour. Is there any alternative function to achieve the same goal? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I updated the source to no longer need fill_contour. Use get_mask instead that does all the work. It would be great if the original author updated the documentation and would release the python package. This is my sample code:

    roi = dyc.get_mask(image_path, contour_filename, 0)

This will get all masks for the first contour, contour_filename is a full path+filename

Hello @marcelvanherk, i tried your workaround but if I do, I get the error:

AttributeError: 'FileMetaDataset' object has no attribute 'TransferSyntaxUID'

I know this error, usually it can be avoided with setting the metadata yourself by using:

contour_file.TransferSyntaxUID = pydicom.uid.ImplicitVRLittleEndian

This does not seem to work here, would you happen to know a workaround?

Hi. What dataset are you using? And in what line does the error occur?
