Pilot study on 3D visualization of Human Dataset under web condition / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To reconstruct the Chinese visible human (CVH) dataset with the reconstruction algorithm, the Visualization Toolkit (VTK), and to realize long-distance accessing and alternating operation associated with virtual reality modeling language (VRML) under web condition. Methods 3D structure of the humerus was reconstructed and put out in web condition by applying the methed of capturing data of digitalized visible human. Results The 3D structure of the humerus was successfully reconstructed. These 3D images displayed the anatomical relationships of the structures of the humerus in explore windows with any angle and scale. All reconstructed structures were represented conveniently. Conclusion Based on VTK and VRML, 3D reconstruction of the humerus is realized, which will provide the support and reference for further research on the others structure's visualization of human body, and also for Visualization in Scientific Computing and long-distance teaching in anatomy.
