Using combinations of different volumetric datasets is becoming more common in scientific applications, especially medical environments such as neurosurgery where multiple imaging...
3D texture-based volume rendering is a popular way of realizing direct volume visualization on graphics hardware. However, the slice-oriented texture memory layout of many current...
We present an accurate, interactive silhouette extraction mechanism for texture-based volume rendering. Compared to previous approaches, our system guarantees silhouettes of a use...
Nowadays, direct volume rendering via 3D textures has positioned itself as an efficient tool for the display and visual analysis of volumetric scalar fields. It is commonly acce...
Different modalities in biomedical imaging, like CT, MRI and PET scanners, provide detailed crosssectional views of the human anatomy. The imagery obtained from these scanning dev...
