Evaluation of Image Quality in Medical Volume Visualization: The State of the Art

For applications of volume visualization in medicine, it is important to assure that the 3D images show the true anatomical situation, or at least to know about their limitations. In this paper, various methods for evaluation of image quality are reviewed. They are classified based on the fundamental terms of intelligibility and fidelity, and discussed with respect to the question what clues they provide on how to choose parameters, or improve imaging and visualization procedures.
