Hi there,

  Volumizer doesn't currently support contour extraction, although this
is something that we have been discussing as a possibility for the
future. You can certainly use Volumizer to render volumetric and surface
information together, but you can't use it to generate the surfaces
themselves... Does that answer your question?
