Reconstruction of realistic three-dimensional models of biological objects from MR-images for the radiation therapy purposes
نویسنده
چکیده
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is one of the most widely used medical diagnostic techniques. Digital Imaging and COmmunications in Medicine (DICOM) is standard format to store results of MRI. In the paper methods of visualization of three-dimensional voxel models of human organs from data obtained using MRI are considered. These models may be used both in medical research and for planning of the radiation therapy treatment. The result of the work is a software package developed for medical physics research.
