摘要： A count is kept of the number of surfaces traversed, in a variety of three-dimensional imaging systems which are particularly advantageous for use in medical applications based upon data generated by magnetic resonance imaging systems and computerized axial tomographic imaging systems. The system is particularly advantageous in a surgical workstation for planning a wide variety of operative procedures. Surfaces may be selected and displayed simultaneously so as to provide the viewer with a significantly improved knowledge of the relationship of various internal body structures.

摘要： An apparatus and method for determining connected substructures within a body is disclosed. The system and method are particularly advantageous for use in medical diagnostic imaging applications. In particular, three dimensional regions exhibiting the same tissue type are similarly labeled. The system and method of the present invention is operable in any situation in which three dimensional signal patterns representing the value of one or more physical properties associated with the substructures within a body at regularly spaced grid locations within the body are presented. A subset of the original data may then be provided to a display processor, particularly one employing gradient normal shading for display of three dimensional images. Even more particularly, the present invention is related to a method and system for determining equivalence classes of objects, the objects typically comprising one or two dimensional connected regions found in a planar slice of data from magnetic resonance imaging or x-ray tomography systems.

摘要： A system for displaying three dimensional surface structures employs the analysis of voxel elements defined by eight cubically adjacent grid locations which are associated with at least one physical property defined throughout a three dimensional body. The physical property measurements may be made with such systems as computerized tomographic x-ray systems, or magnetic resonance imaging devices. Surface structures are defined by a user selected threshhold value such as distinct values for skin and bone in medical diagnostic applications. Selected voxels are subdivided and means are provided for generating signal values associated with intermediate additional grid locations. Means are also provided for generating surface normal vectors associated with these grid locations. The system of the present invention produces a sequence of signals representative of grid locations throughout the object being investigated together with associated surface normal vectors at these locations, the locations lying on a user selected surface. The system provides smooth, high resolution images which particularly useful for medical diagnostic applications and is particularly useful with conventional display processor hardware used for electronic graphics display. The capabilities of the system additionally provide enhanced flexibility and speed for the convenience of interactive users.

摘要： A method and apparatus for displaying arbitrary cross-sectional views of a three-dimensional body from a regular array of values of at least one physical property in the interior of the body includes making physical property measurements with such systems as computerized tomographic x-ray systems, or magnetic resonance imaging systems. Cut planes are defined by the user as displacement from, and rotations from, an arbitrary coordinate origin in the data space. An initial plane of pixel positions of arbitrary density is displaced and rotated to correspond to the cut plane. The values for the physical property at the pixel positions are interpolated from the surrounding measurements of actual values. Cross-sectional images are thereby supplied interactively in real time to support, for example, ongoing surgical procedures.

摘要： A dual pipeline architecture for a system for preprocessing image data gathered from such systems as magnetic resonance imaging and computer axial tomography scanners. In one simultaneously operable dual pipeline, normal vectors are computed for each voxel element in accordance with the dividing cubes vector generation system. In another pipeline, circuitry is provided for generating surface identification indicia which are associated with unit normal vectors produced by the former pipeline. Data are supplied to a graphics processor for the production of shaded two-dimensional images representative of three-dimensional surfaces from various view angles. The system is particularly useful in medical diagnostic applications and is particularly useful in planning surgical procedures.

摘要： Arbitrary interior surfaces of a three-dimensional body are displayed from a regular array of values of at least one physical property in the interior of the body. The physical property measurements may be made with systems such as computerized tomographic x-ray, or magnetic resonance imaging. Highly parallel circuits and a highly parallel architecture permit generation of surface views in real time, i.e., sufficiently fast to support ongoing procedures such as surgical operations. These parallel circuits, realizable on large scale integrated circuit chips, perform surface normal calculations, linear interpolations and signal comparisons in simultaneously operating circuit paths which are asynchronously enabled when input data appear.

摘要： A method for providing a volumetrically-rendered projection image using reverse ray casting, uses the steps of: acquiring, from an object volume of interest, a set of data sampled from each volume element (voxel) therein responsive to a selected characteristic of that object volume; storing the data for each object voxel in a corresponding data volume element; scanning sequentially through each data voxel within the data volume corresponding to the object volume of interest; projecting each scanned data voxel to an image plane, at a solid angle determined from the solid angle at which the object volume is viewed; storing a value for each image plane pixel, responsive to a selected criteria, from the values of all projected data voxel values impingent upon that image plane pixel; and then scaling the dimensions of each image plane pixel responsive to the dimensions of the corresponding object volume shape, and the involved projection solid angle, to correct for anisotropy.
