Eduardo,
The Viewer Module will display a 3D axis in the upper-right corner of its UI window indicating the current orientation of the coordinate system. It is color coded Red, Green, Blue for the three cardinal directions X, Y, and Z, respectively. The brighter arrows point towards the positive direction, while the darker ones point in the negative direction. By showing the UTAH-TORSO mesh via a FieldReader->ShowField->Viewer network I can deduce that +X(bright red) points to the torso's left side, +Y(bright green) points towards the torso's back, and +Z (bright blue) points in the direction of the torso's head.

Hey there,

what is the oritentation of the coordinate system in SCIRun? If we take the UTAH-TORSO as an example, in what direction is the X-coordinate, Y-coordinate and Z-coordinate? Is the X-Coordinate the one pointing to the head?

Thank you!
