Abstract:
:Volume rendering is a visualization technique that has important applications in diagnostic radiology and radiotherapy. A methodology is presented for (a) evaluation of the quantitative accuracy of representation of known objects in volume-rendered scenes and for (b) optimization of the opacity transfer function to achieve the most accurate representation of a particular structure. Results using this methodology are shown for structures representing each of the major tissue interfaces and are discussed.
