Hi Oliver, there's something you can do to characterize elliptical cross-sections. First compute centerlines, then use vmtkcenterlinesections -ifile model.vtp -centerlinesfile centerlines.vtp -ofile sections.vtp The sections dataset will contain min size and max size (taken as the min and max distance of the section to the intersection of the centerline and the section plane) and area. Hope this helps,
