Volumetric Filtering, Feature Extraction, and Visualization of Volumetric Tomographic Molecular Imaging

We present algorithms for fully automatic volume filtering, boundary segmentation and skeletonization, and demonstrate their applications in cell and molecular tomographic imaging. We also introduce an interactive volumetric exploration tool (Volume Rover), which encapsulates implementations of the above filtering, and curve/surface feature extraction algorithms, and additionally uses multi-resolution interactive geometry and volume rendering, for the visualization.
