For certain processing tasks it would be useful to expose a mask of the geometry (i.e. a Cartesian volume of the same size as the actual image data, but only consisting of e.g. 1 or 255 inside the actual Ultrasound scan geometry and 0 outside - illustration below).
For the sake of computational efficiency it would ideally be sampled together with the actual Cartesian volume (containing the anatomy), e.g. via an overload of IImage3dSource::GetFrame( ..., Image3d *geomMask)
Clearly this would involve an interface change, that impacts all plugins, so prb the default implementation could just fall back onto the original IImage3dSource::GetFrame - what do you think @forderud ?
