Abstract

See full text

One or more planes used as part of volume rendering define the depth for measuring. A clip plane is used to crop parts of the volume to be rendered. A multi-planar reconstruction or reformation positions various cut planes to render two-dimensional imaging provided with the volume imaging. One of these planes is used to project a caliper position onto the plane for measurement using the volume rendering. The position of the calipers placed on the volume rendered image of the two-dimensional screen is converted to a location in three-dimensional space based on the plane position.
