An Interactive Cerebral Blood Vessel Exploration System

Published in the IEEE Visualization '97 Conference.

Abstract

An interactive cerebral blood vessel exploration system is described. It has been designed on the basis of neurosurgeon's requirements in order to assist them in the diagnosis of vascular pathologies. The system is based on the construction of a symbolic model of the vascular tree with an automatic identification and labelling of vessel bifurcations, aneurysms and stenoses. It provides several types of visualization: individual MRA slices, MIP, shaded rendering, symbolic scheme and surface reconstruction.
