- Three Dimensional Reconstruction Of Medical
- Images from Serial Slices - CT, MRI, Ultrasound
-
-
- These programs process a set of slices images (scans) for one
- patient. It outputs two sets of files containing nine predefined
- views of bony surfaces. One set contains distance values and
- the other gradient values.
-
- The distance values are used as 3-D spatial topographic surface
- coordinate maps for geometrical analysis of the scanned object.
-
- The gradient values are used for rendering the surface maps on
- CRT displays for subjective viewing where perception of small
- surface details is important.
