How to find elements of a 3d matrix inside a volume

Hi all, Does anyone has any idea how can I find the elements of a 3d matrix located inside a volume defined by boundary faces? any comment is appreciated,

Hi Ashli,

This utility will "voxelise" your mesh. Then you can use that image as a logical index into your 3d image:

Also, on the off chance that all of your objects are convex, then there is an approach to this with vert2con() on the FEX that will quickly allow you to identify whether a voxel is inside the vertices.

If your volume is tesselated with triangles and watertight, you might be able to use intriangulation from the FEX.
