Cannot find the attached segmentation mask from the supporting file of Medical Image-Based Finite Element Analysis of Spine documentation

Hello everyone,

May I ask for some assitances from who have ever tried to reproduce the example from MATLAB documentation? I have tried to reproduce the Medical Image-Based Finite Element Analysis of Spine from this link : https://www.mathworks.com/help/medical-imaging/ug/Medical-Image-Based-Finite-Element-Analysis-of-Spine.html#MedicalImageBasedFiniteElementAnalysisOfSpineExample-2 .

When I have downloaded the example with the provided code below.

zipFile = matlab.internal.examples.downloadSupportFile("medical","MedicalVolumeDICOMData.zip");

I cannot find the segmentation mask as described in the documentation.

Are there anyone who have ever experienced the issues about reproducing the example from MATLAB documatation? If yes, how do you deal with the issue? Really appreciated, every supportive comments.

Hi Thattapong,

If I were you then firstly, I will make sure that downloaded zip file is extracted correctly and that all necessary files are present in the specified directories. Afterwards, I will manually check the contents of the extracted files to verify the presence of the segmentation mask. If the segmentation mask is still missing, then I will consider reaching out to MATLAB support for further assistance or look for alternative sources where the complete example may be available. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Appreciated your advices, Umar. I will reach MATLAB support for this issue. I have tried in many computers to run the code provided in the website, but it seems that segmentation files does not exists.

Thanks again.
