LengthTool

LengthTool let you draw annotations that measures the length of two drawing points on a slice. You can use the LengthTool in all imaging planes even in oblique reconstructed planes. Note: annotation tools in cornerstone3DTools exists in the exact location in the physical 3d space, as a result, by default, all annotations that are drawing in the same frameOfReference will get shared between viewports that are in the same frameOfReference.

The resulting annotation’s data (statistics) and metadata (the state of the viewport while drawing was happening) will get added to the ToolState manager and can be accessed from the ToolState by calling getAnnotations or similar methods.

cornerstoneTools.addTool(LengthTool)

const toolGroup = ToolGroupManager.createToolGroup('toolGroupId')

toolGroup.addTool(LengthTool.toolName)

toolGroup.addViewport('viewportId', 'renderingEngineId')

toolGroup.setToolActive(LengthTool.toolName, {
  bindings: [
   {
      mouseButton: MouseBindings.Primary, // Left Click
    },
  ],
})
