Volumetric Visualisation

Volumetric Visualisation is a module of the Med Vis course and teaches students about the creation of 3D renders from 2D, traditional scan data such as CT and MRI scans.

I gained skills in both indirect and direct volume rendering as well as data registration (the alignment of data) and produced a high quality assignment utilising these skills. This assignment provided me with a deeper understanding as to what technique to choose when faced with a problem, a skill which I adopted during the development of my MSc project when creating vertebrae models.

Indirect and Direct Volume Rendering of Hip Fracture

Final visualisations for the preoperative scans (bottom) and post operative scans (top). Images taken from right (left), anterior (middle), and posterior (right) views.

Data Registration (Brain Tumour Visualisation)

Data registration in MITK was used to align a PET, MRI and CT scan. From here, different techniques such as IDVR, DVR and skull stripping in 3D Slicer were used to produce this visualisation.

Visualisation of Lung Tumour

Both IDVR and DVR were used to visualise the lung tumour in context.
