We introduce basic concepts behind the Visualization Toolkit (VTK). An overview of the
system, plus some detailed examples, will assist in learning this system. The tutorial targets …

With the increasing availability of high-resolution isotropic three-or four-dimensional medical
datasets from sources such as magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and …

Most direct volume renderings produced today employ 1D transfer functions which assign
color and opacity to the volume based solely on the single scalar quantity which comprises …

We introduce a novel texture-based volume rendering approach that achieves the image
quality of the best post-shading approaches with far less slices. It is suitable for new flexible …

Recursive ray tracing is a simple yet powerful and general approach for accurately
computing global light transport and rendering high quality images. While recent algorithmic …

When you think about how far and fast computer science has progressed in recent years, it's
not hard to conclude that a seven-year old handbook may fall a little short of the kind of …

Most direct volume renderings produced today employ one-dimensional transfer functions,
which assign color and opacity to the volume based solely on the single scalar quantity …

Visualization in Medicine is the first book on visualization and its application to problems in
medical diagnosis, education, and treatment. The book describes the algorithms, the …

Visual Computing for Medicine, Second Edition, offers cutting-edge visualization techniques
and their applications in medical diagnosis, education, and treatment. The book includes …
