Context

This PR addresses a limitation in the RectangleROIStartEndThresholdTool and CircleROIStartEndThresholdTool where they lacked the ability to target a specific volume in a fusion viewport (e.g., PET/CT).

Previously, these tools would default to the viewport's default target, making it difficult to run threshold segmentation on the PET volume without manual intervention.

The intent is unchanged, but the implementation has been rebased onto main and reworked to use the measurement target selection that #2557 has since landed. Rather than each tool implementing its own getTargetId, both now inherit BaseTool.getMeasurementTargets, which builds the candidate targets from the viewport's actors and display sets and selects among them with the targetsFilter chooser plus the targetPredicate (see measurementTargetFilters). This is the mechanism that replaced the now deprecated isPreferredTargetId configuration.

Besides avoiding a second, parallel selection mechanism, this makes the feature work in a case the original could not: the deprecated isPreferredTargetId is only consulted against statistics that have already been computed (data.cachedStats), so it could never apply to a freshly drawn annotation. The candidates behind targetsFilter come from the viewport itself, so the PT volume is selected from the first draw.

Changes & Results

  • RectangleROIStartEndThresholdTool.ts / CircleROIStartEndThresholdTool.ts:
    • Dropped the tool specific getTargetId overrides so the target is chosen by the inherited implementation, honouring the targetsFilter/targetPredicate configuration. With no filter configured the behaviour is unchanged - the viewport's default view reference.
    • Added a getTargetVolume helper resolving the targetId and its volume together, used by addNewAnnotation, _endCallback and _calculateCachedStatsTool.
    • The annotation data is now passed when resolving, so an existing cachedStats entry for the same volume is reused instead of a second one being created for each view.
    • A configured filter selecting no target on a viewport (eg a PT only filter on a CT viewport of the same tool group) now computes no statistics rather than throwing.
    • Replaced the targetId.split(/volumeId:|\?/)[1] parsing with getVolumeId, and the private viewport.volumeIds access (behind a @ts-ignore) with the public getAllVolumeIds().
  • rectangleROIStartEndThresholdWithSegmentation example:
    • Updated the dataset to use a working Phantom PET/CT study, fusing CT and PT.
    • Configures measurementTargetFilters.firstPixelData with forModality('PT') to demonstrate targeting the PT volume, matching how the petCt example configures the same selection.
  • measurementTargets.jest.js: regression tests covering both tools - the default target with no filter configured, PT selection on a fusion viewport by modality, reuse of an existing cachedStats key, and resolving no target when the filter matches nothing.

Effect:
Users can now configure these tools to automatically select the correct volume (e.g. the PT series) for statistics and thresholding operations in fusion scenarios.

Note: these tools remain single target - unlike CircleROITool/RectangleROITool they do not display statistics for CT and PT at once, since they override renderAnnotation/getTextLines wholesale. That would be a larger follow up.

Testing

  1. Run the example rectangleROIStartEndThresholdWithSegmentation.
  2. Draw an ROI on the fused image.
  3. Verify in the console/UI that the tool is now calculating statistics and performing segmentation based on the PT volume (as configured in index.ts), rather than the CT volume.
  4. npx jest packages/tools/test/measurementTargets.jest.js covers the target selection for both tools.

Note: The Circle tool was updated for code consistency, but the primary verification was done using the Rectangle tool in the provided example.

hmmm we will need help, really don't understand why tests are failing this PR shouldn't change behavior if you don't use isPreferredTargetId

This should generally be in the parent class, not be specific to the tool as it is a general behaviour.

If it were in the base class, it would just get used by both tools and you wouldn't be duplicating code.

I'm not sure it is feasible, the RectangleTool uses getTargetId for baseTools which is based on imageId.
Here as we are in 3D we work on a volume, there is no imageId for each slice (can be reconstructed axis)

I think we are missing a layer of abstraction, some tools that are expected to work on image each one with an imageId should have a different base class than 3D tools that will rely on volume definition.

Unfortunately it needs to rework all tools codes to make correct inheritance ..

# Conflicts:
#	packages/tools/src/tools/segmentation/RectangleROIStartEndThresholdTool.ts
The Rectangle/Circle ROI StartEndThreshold tools each overrode getTargetId to
pick the measured volume with the `isPreferredTargetId` callback, walking the
viewport volume ids directly. PR cornerstonejs#2557 has since landed the general mechanism
for this on BaseTool - getMeasurementTargets builds candidates from the
viewport actors and display sets and selects among them with the
`targetsFilter` chooser plus `targetPredicate` (see measurementTargetFilters)
- and deprecated `isPreferredTargetId`.

Drop both overrides so these tools inherit that selection, and replace the
three call sites with a getTargetVolume helper resolving the targetId and its
volume together. Without a configured filter the behaviour is unchanged (the
viewport default view reference). With one, a fusion viewport measures its PT
volume from the first draw - the deprecated callback could only match against
already computed cachedStats, so it never applied to a new annotation.

Also:
- pass the annotation data when resolving the target, so an existing
  cachedStats key for the same volume is reused rather than a second created
- compute no statistics instead of throwing when a configured filter selects
  no target on a viewport (eg a PT only filter on a CT viewport of the same
  tool group)
- use getVolumeId instead of parsing the targetId with a split regex
- read the displayed volumes through the public getAllVolumeIds() rather than
  the private volumeIds field behind a @ts-ignore, which no longer compiles

The example configures `firstPixelData` + `forModality(PT)` in place of
`isPreferredTargetId`, matching the petCt example, and measurementTargets
regression tests cover both tools.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The threshold tools now support filtered CT/PT measurement targets and missing-target handling. The segmentation example now loads fused CT/PT volumes, applies modality-specific color maps, measures PT data, and registers labelmaps across three viewports.

Changes

Threshold measurement target resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Filtered target resolution and validation
packages/tools/src/tools/segmentation/CircleROIStartEndThresholdTool.ts, packages/tools/src/tools/segmentation/RectangleROIStartEndThresholdTool.ts, packages/tools/test/measurementTargets.jest.js
Both tools resolve cached targets through configured filters, reuse cached statistics keys, handle unavailable targets, and use getAllVolumeIds(). Tests cover CT defaults, PT filters, cached keys, and no matching target.

Fused CT/PT segmentation example

Layer / File(s) Summary
Fused volume setup and segmentation flow
packages/tools/examples/rectangleROIStartEndThresholdWithSegmentation/index.ts, packages/tools/examples/rectangleROIStartEndThresholdWithSegmentation/preset.js
The example loads CT and PT volumes, applies separate transfer functions, selects PT data for threshold statistics, guards invalid segmentation input, derives the labelmap from PT data, and registers it on all three viewports. The new preset defines a perfusion gradient.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 371a9

In a viewport without the configured target modality, starting either threshold ROI tool can fail and leave drawing interaction active. This should be handled as a canceled draw before merge.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Do not throw when the configured measurement target has no match.

A PT-only filter on a CT-only viewport validly returns no target. Both methods set isDrawing before this branch, then throw. The pointer interaction fails and leaves drawing state enabled if the caller catches the error. Cancel the interaction without creating or completing an annotation.
