Interactive Direct Volume Rendering of the Inner Ear for the Planning of Neurosurgery |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
A high quality polygonal model of the temporal bone and the structures related to the middle and inner ear is presented. The segmen- tation of the spiral CT-data and the reconstruction was performed in an iterative process taking several hours to complete. In comparison to this, the power of direct volume rendering is presented which produces meaningful images of the same data in a very short time by interactively adjusting pre-defined color look-up tables. Additionally, using hardware assisted registration, the fusion of CT- and MR-data gives an even more comprehensive representation of the whole situation. Examples demon- strate the direct clinical application and show the value for the planning of neurosurgery. |
