Foil 26 A4 - Plans / Deliverables -- I

From Collaborative and Interactive Visualization Project Second Quaterly Review Review Meeting at NPAC -- 18 March 1996. by Geoffrey C. Fox * See also color IMAGE

Survey of algorithms for volume visualization
Reconstruction from anatomical serial sections (high resolution, color images, voxels are not cubic)
MRI, CT - gray-scale images; due to the resolution are of limited use for volume renderings
Aligning (linear interpolation between slices; best fit of features as a function of translation and rotations)
Store data in rich semantic format in a database system (Illustra) and dynamically synthesize VRML worlds on request
  • 3D virtual tour through reconstructed, selected part of the body
  • VRML WebSpace viewer (performance problems expected)
JAVA applets - dynamic, interactive visualization
Volumetric display
  • Only selected plane is seen (other info in dataset is not used)
  • or, the whole data set is used and seen (not good for complex structures)
