Hi YiQiang, there was not attachment. In any case, I confirm that the bifurcation vector corresponding to group 0 is the CCA vector. What you wrote is correct.

So, by summing the angle between the ICA branch vector and the up-normal and the ECA branch vector and the up-normal you get the ICA angle. Note: here I wrote "sum" because I'm referring to the angles absolute value, but it's really the difference of the signed angles (since the ICA branch and the ECA branch are on opposite sides of the bifurcation up-normal, so one angle will come out positive and the other negative, by the convention used in vmtk). > > The reason why we don't spit the ICA angle directly is just our wish to make the tool generic and not specific to the carotid bifurcation. > >> 2)in the result of the vector (BifurcationVectors, InPlaneBifurcationVectors, OutOfPlaneBifurcationVectors) by VMTK (as an attachment), each part has three groups. and how to get the angle from the vector by VMTK? or do i need to use the other tools (such as Paraview) to caculate the angle value. > > You get both vectors and angles.
