Krüger, a Clearview rendering of the visible human male dataset Attempting to display the entirety of a large volumetric dataset at one time would result in an overwhelming amount of information. Furthermore, visualization tools based on volume rendering present the user with a host of confusing options. We present […]
Read MoreFigure from B.M. Issacson, et al., A unilateral hierarchical model was assembled as a representative image consisting of skin (purple) adipose tissue (yellow), musculature (pink), bone (blue), bone marrow (orange), and internal organs (green) (a). Each tissue type was assigned a specific conductivity using SCIRun. A large serpentine-like mass of HO was identified in the […]
Read MoreA “typical” workflow that applies to many problems in biomedical simulation contains the following elements:(i) Image acquisition and processing for a tissue, organ or region of interest (imaging and image processing), (ii) Identification of structures, tissues, cells or organelles within the images(image processing and segmentation), (iii) Fitting of geometric surfaces to the boundaries between structures […]
