Subject: Add padding in clitkExtractLung
X-Git-Tag: v1.3.0~321^2~2
X-Git-Url: https://git.creatis.insa-lyon.fr/pubgit/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5038b96891adaefcde5b5520bb875b9378a0f81a;p=clitk.git

Add padding in clitkExtractLung

Add padding around the patient to form one big air area around him.
ExtractLung relies on this assumption which was false for dir-labs
patients cropped around the ribcage.
