In order to enhance the cerebral blood vessels in the visualization,
in this report, the specific problems of the medical diagnosis of
vascular structures and the requirements of the visualization are
presented. The most suitable shading model to outline the vessel
features is defines and a new visualization method is proposed which
keeps a low computational cost. This method provides a general
solution to visualize volume objects and it is based on the splatting
approach using spatial coherence. First, a pre-process is performed
in which the visualization parameters that are independent from the
viewpoint are computed, next the number of samples to be projected is reduced and finally advantage is taken of the coherence between
successive samples projection. The coherence can be used also on the
ray-casting strategy. Thus, the costs of these approachs are analyzed
and compared. Some implementations are done in order to shown its
results |
