sounds great! i've been working out of this guy -
https://github.com/fuentesdt/thermoembo

and loading vtk data for the segmentation:
https://github.com/fuentesdt/thermoembo/blob/master/tutorials/exac.c#L50

I can clean this up and separate into relevant directories ? or start an
new repo? which ever you prefer.
