Virtual endoscopy is among the most active topics in virtual medicine and medical imaging. It focuses on the virtual representation of minimally invasive procedures for training, ...
Abstract. We present an illustrative rendering extension for virtual endoscopy to enhance depth perception. For this purpose different hatch textures are applied and their ability ...

Virtual endoscopy presents the cross-sectional acquired 3D-data of a computer tomograph as an endoluminal view. The common approach for the visualization of a virtual endoscopy is...
Abstract. Virtual colonoscopy is a minimally invasive technique allowing early detection of colorectal polyps. A path or centerline through the colon can be very useful to perform ...
Endonasal transsphenoidal pituitary surgery is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure, applied to remove various kinds of pituitary tumors. To reduce the risk associated with t...
In this paper, we present a novel framework for computing centerlines for both 2D and 3D shape analysis. The framework works as follows: an object centerline point is selected auto...

In this paper, we propose a new variational framework for computing continuous curve skeletons from discrete objects that are suitable for structural shape representation.
We have...
