โฆ Synopsis
Three-dimensional (3D) shape reconstruction from 2D image data has been receiving extensive attention in medical engineering. It can enhance accurate diagnosis of the disease from medical images of computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An algorithm based on reverse engineering technique was proposed in this work for 3D surface reconstruction of CT images. Several image processing techniques were applied first to detect the 2D contour of the object for each of the CT images. A surface lofting approach was then employed to fit the 2D contours into a 3D surface model. A brain example was presented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

A method is described that allows a three-dimensional object to be reconstructed from micrographs of serial sections by means of computer graphics. The reconstructed object, which can be rotated three-dimensionally, is displayed on a colour visual display unit, and the object is shaded in order to p
One of the central problems in assessing the role of process planning in CIM is the paucity of current systems available to address the stringent needs of CAPP in a CIM context. This paper reviews these stringent needs and classifies the available systems accordingly. It concludes with a summary of
We present the first report on the use of helical computed tomography (CT), a new, non-invasive diagnostic technique that produces three-dimensional (3-D) images, in prenatal diagnosis. This technique was used to construct 3-D images in the prenatal diagnosis of two anomalous fetuses. The 3-D images
