Virtual endoscopy : an application snapshot
March 1999 17 medicamundi Virtual endoscopy is a recent development in postprocessing techniques for cross-sectional images. Unlike conventional 3D reconstructions, the images obtained are given a perspective which, when highly magnified, creates the impression of a true endoscopic image [1]. There are two basic methods that can be used to obtain an artificial surface: surface rendering, in whi...
متن کاملVirtual Endoscopy; an Application of Virtual Reality in Medicine
Virtual reality is an exciting technology that is evolving rapidly within the field of medicine. Over the years, several researchers and developers have investigated and created advanced technologies to enable three-dimensional computer generated models, with the objective of assisting within a variety of medical sectors from basic training through to practising surgical procedures. The approac...
متن کاملVirtual Endoscopy in Research and Clinical Practice
Virtual endoscopy is among the most active topics in virtual medicine and medical imaging. It focuses on the virtual representation of minimally invasive procedures for training, planning, and diagnosis without an actual invasive intervention. In the past few years, virtual endoscopy modes have been transferred from research systems in virtually every commercial medical imaging software, but wi...
متن کاملVisualization Techniques for Virtual Endoscopy Visualization Techniques for Virtual Endoscopy
Virtual Endoscopy is a technique to explore hollow organs and anatomical cavities using 3D medical imaging and computer graphics. Virtual Endoscopy turns out to be a promising technique to improve, or even in some procedures substitute, real endoscopy. A real endoscopy is invasive and usually implies some risk for the patient. In the last decades, much research has been done in this field. This...
متن کاملMinimal Paths in 3D Images and Application to Virtual Endoscopy
This paper presents a new method to nd minimal paths in 3D images, giving as initial data one or two endpoints. This is based on previous work [1] for extracting paths in 2D images using Fast Marching [4]. Our original contribution is to extend this technique to 3D, and give new improvements of the approach that are relevant in 2D as well as in 3D. We also introduce several methods to reduce th...
