Hi Nikhil, look at this tutorial: http://www.vmtk.org/Tutorials/Centerlines/ for generating centerlines from a surface. Centerlines are the envelope of maximum inscribed spheres and carry the radius of the sphere at each point. To extract the largest radius, just output the centerlines file with a .dat extension, which will essentially produce a CSV file with the radius as a last column. Or, in case you know how to use VTK, manipulate the vtkPolyData containing centerlines directly. Best,
