Visualization Results

To demonstrate the applicability of the presented methods, we display visualization results for clinical datasets in Figures 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, and 5.11. The images show anatomic features and/or pathologies.

Figure 5.8: CT scan of colon. Bones and colon are displayed in the top image. The bottom image shows the colon without bones.

Figure 5.9: CT scan of heart. The myocardal muscle is displayed in red, the coronary vessels are depicted in yellow tones.

Figure 5.10: CT scan of lumbar spine. A fracture of a lumbar vertebra is highlighted.

Figure 5.11: CT scan of abdomen. Through enhancement of the abdominal vascular structure an aorta aneurysma can be recognized.
