Breast volume estimation from systematic series of CT scans using the Cavalieri principle and 3D reconstruction

Volume Reconstruction of Breast Echography from Anisotropically Degradated Scans

This paper presents a technique to reconstruct 3D breast ultrasound images at high resolution from anisotropically degradated volume acquisitions. Volumes are acquired by scanning the breast tissue with a 2D probe at different angles, showing different directional degradations induced by the point spread functions. We present a new technique to reconstruct the original volume based on estimatin...

Stereological evaluation of temporal lobe/telencephalon volume in temporal lobe epilepsy using the Cavalieri principle.

AIM Epilepsy is a temporary electric discharge in the brain cells due to shortterm brain function disorder. Epileptic seizures mostly stem from the temporal lobe. The prevalence is the same for women and men. It is thought that there are both microscopic- and macroscopic-level localized changes in the temporal lobe epilepsy. This study aims to assess the volumetric changes that might occur in t...

Left Ventricle Volume Estimation From 3D SPECT Reconstruction

Our approach describes the three-dimensional reconstruction of the internal and external surfaces of the human's left ventricle from actual SPECT data. The reconstruction is a first process fitting in a complete VR application that will serve as an important diagnosis tool for hospitals. Beginning with the surfaces reconstruction, the application will provide volume and interactive real-time ma...

Reconstruction and Analysis of Shapes from 3D Scans

3d Shape Reconstruction Using Volume Intersection Techniques 3d Shape Reconstruction Using Volume Intersection Techniques

This paper presents a technique for reconstructing objects from noisy boundary data that are scattered, unorganised and incomplete. Volume intersection algorithms are used to reconstruct incomplete objects from their silhouettes. An imagined light source is moved about the data and the cumulative amount ofìight' seen at each point in space is interpreted as indicating the likelihood that the po...
