Abstract

This paper presents a scalable virtual reality-based software for medical visualization. Usable on a desktop, on a head-mounted display or on a CAVE-like system, the application allows the full inspection of CT or MRI images superimposed to the 3D models of the organs built from these images. Additionally full volume rendering functionalities and several interaction tools as transparencies, choice of the CT slice to display, hiding and showing of meshes and additional information on the scanning procedure are available. The tool aims at offering an indepth inspection of the body organs for medical, education and surgical preoperative planning.
