Recovery of 3D coordinates from sets of images is useful in many areas. This allows for reconstruction of objects and recovery of motion characteristics from images. For this to be possible, the orientation and position of the cameras with respect to each other must be recovered rst. This is the classic photogrammetric problem of relative orientation. Once this is solved, corresponding intersec...

in this paper we propose novel algorithms for retrieving dental images from databases by their contents. based on special information of dental images, for better content based dental image retrieval and representation, the image attributes are used. we propose disr (dental image segmentation and retrieval), a content-based image retrieval method which is robust to translation and scaling of th...

conclusion vr reconstruction for both single-direction images and sushi using dti25 raw data provides excellent 3d displays of the peripheral nerves in the wrist region. sushi post-processing is a useful denoising tool because it automatically reduces the majority of isotropic object noise. results single-direction vr reconstruction clearly showed the nerves for both dti6 and dti25 but with obv...

3d imagination of human's organs has become feasible by digital image processing techniques and algorithms via ct or mri images in recent years. in this study, a new method for reverse engineering and biomodelling of hard tissues by catia cloud points' concept has been considered. comparing with the current softwares (e.g. biobuild or mimics) has shown the new method's easiness of implementing ...

For the surgical approach to lesions around the cavernous sinus (CS), triangular spaces around CS have been devised. However, educational materials for learning the triangles were insufficient. The purpose of this study is to present educational materials about the triangles, consisting of a schematic diagram and 3-dimensional (3D) models with sectioned images. To achieve the purposes, other st...

OBJECTIVE The use of stone and plaster study models is an integral part of any dental practice and is required for research. Storage of study models is problematic in terms of space and cost. Ayoub et al.(1) introduced a new technique based on the recent advances in stereophotogrammetry for archiving dental study models in a digital format. However, assessment of the accuracy of the generated t...
