Distance Based Enhancement for Focal Region Based Volume Rendering

Abstract

This paper proposes a method to control the object enhance- ment in context region in focal region based volume rendering. The pro- posed method uses the distance as a factor to control the volume features in the context region. The main contributions are as follows: To introduce the distance into the rendering pipeline for volume feature enhancement; To demonstrate the implementation of how to use distance in focal re- gion based volume rendering; And to show the important capabilities of distance based enhancement in focal region based volume rendering for 3D data interpretation.
