[MINC-users] easiest way to do large, isotropic erosion and dilation with mincmorph?

[Michel Audette]

Hello,

I want to run mincmorph to produce a morphological opening with a large
isotropic structuring element, and I would like to keep the results of the
erosion and dilation separately, so in fact I want to run separate erode and
dilate operations with this element and keep each result. What is the
simplest way? Must I put together a file that expresses this element, or can
I run this with a simple parameter that indicates the size of element? If I
absolutely need the file, are there some that I can get ready-made?

Cheers,

Michel
