Virtual Unfolding of the Stomach Based on Volumetric Image Deformation
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This paper describes a method for generating unfolded views of the stomach based on 3-D gray image deformation. Unfolded views can show the status of the stomach in one image. ...
In the proposed method, we generate the approximated shape using a volumetric model. The volumetric model is deformed so as to generate unfolded views of the stomach. ...

Virtual endoscopy: development and evaluation using the Visible Human Datasets
2000
Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics
Virtual endoscopy (VE) is a new method of diagnosis using computer processing of 3D image datasets (such as CT or MRI scans) to provide simulated visualizations of patient specific organs similar or equivalent ...
Additionally, the adjunctive value of full 3D imaging (e.g. looking "outside" of the normal field of view) during the VE exam is being evaluated. ...
