Region-Restricted Model for Fast Volume Rendering to Interactively Change Visualized Objects

摘要

With the objective of advanced medical diagnostic support based on understanding the three-dimensional structure of the region being diagnosed, volume data meas- ured by X-ray computed tomography(CT)and three-di- mensional images obtained by volume rendering are increasingly being used. To present useful information about the region being diagnosed, functions to display the fine structure and to interactively select the information to be visualized are needed.
