Dear CGAL developers, 

I am interested in producing a tetrahedralization that is faithful to the input boundary and that adheres to a prescribed density function. I have looked into the meshing available with CGAL, but so far the density function must be constant and moreover, the final tetrahedralization does not conform to the input PLC. I would consider another approach, where I generate Steiner points which I can then input to something like Tetgen, where the Steiner points are inserted in a manner that respects the prescribed density function (which in turn is computed based on distance from a specific subvolume of the anatomy). 

Does CGAL have anything for producing such a cloud of Steiner points? If not, can anyone suggest software that does this?

Thanks for your kind support.

Best wishes,
