Surface Rendering for Multi-axial Cross Sections

This study presents, for the first time, an automatic algorithm for surface rendering of a volume consisting of multi-axial cross sections. In computer graphics, although a medical volume is usually considered to consist of sequential parallel cross sections, multi-axial parallel sections that constitute a multi-axial volume have also been frequently used in recent clinical cases. Herein, a mul...

Template-based surface reconstruction from cross-sections

In this work we explore a new approach to solving the problem of surface reconstruction from cross-section curves. Existing reconstruction methods focus on producing smooth interpolations and may require a large number of crosssections to recreate feature-rich objects. In the context of medical image segmentation, we make the observation that anatomical structures usually share a common overall...

Surface interpolation for sparse cross-sections using region correspondence

The ability to estimate a surface from a set of cross-sections allows calculation of the enclosed volume and display of the surface in three-dimensions (3-D). However, extracting the cross-sections (segmenting) can be very difficult, and automatic segmentation methods are not sufficiently robust to deal with all situations. Hence, it is an advantage if the surface reconstruction algorithm can w...

Simplified Approach for Torsional Analysis of Non-homogenous Tubes with Non-circular Cross-sections

In this paper a method is presented for torsional analysis of non-homogeneous tubes with arbitrarily shaped cross-sections. A previously presented method based on Bredt’s theory is extended to achieve formulas for torsional analysis. Shear modulus varies through the thickness according to a power law distribution. To validate the accuracy of the presented formulas for angle of twist and shear s...
