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)
