today radiology and imaging are the only and main method to generate geometrical data from body. 3d model of the body will give us the best and reliable information for better understanding and diagnostic. on the other hand with development of cad/cam and rapid prototyping, the 3d printers were born to build 3d models without considering the geometry. today the 3d printers are able to makes a 3...

conclusions our study demonstrated that 3d tvs has a good efficacy and reliable agreement with hysteroscopy in diagnosis of uterine lesions among infertile women. therefore, it can decrease the number of diagnostic hysteroscopies. results totally, 153 women were recruited in the investigation. patients aged 30.78 ± 4.79 years in average and the duration of infertility was 4.2 ± 2.91 years among...

objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the influences of reconstruction and attenuation correction on the differences in the radioactivity distributions in 123i brain spect obtained by the hybrid spect/ct device. methods: we used the 3-dimensional (3d) brain phantom, which imitates the precise structure of gray mater, white matter and bone regions. it was filled with 123i solution (20...

introduction: three-dimensional (3d) scanners are widely used in medicine. one of the applications of 3d scanners is the acquisition of anthropometric dimensions for ergonomics and the creation of an anthropometry data bank. the aim of this study was to evaluate the precision and accuracy of a modified 3d scanner fabricated in this study. methods: in this work, a 3d scan of the human body was o...

introduction: breast conserving radiotherapy is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiation oncology department. a tangential parallel-opposed pair is usually used for this purpose. this technique is performed using 2d or 3d treatment planning systems. the aim of this study was to compare 2d treatment planning with 3d treatment planning in tangential irradiation in breast conse...

in this paper, a novel patch geodesic derivative pattern (pgdp) describing the texture map of a face through its shape data is proposed. geodesic adjusted textures are encoded into derivative patterns for similarity measurement between two 3d images with different pose and expression variations. an extensive experimental investigation is conducted using the publicly available bosphorus and bu-3...

Positioning service is one of Wireless Sensor Networks’ (WSNs) fundamental services. The accurate position of the sensor nodes plays a vital role in many applications of WSNs. In this paper, a 3D positioning algorithm is being proposed, using mobile anchor node to assist sensor nodes in order to estimate their positions in a 3D geospatial environment. However, mobile anchor node’s 3D path optim...
