| Research Abstract |
In this paper, we have described several techniques based on 3 dimensional image and Computer Graphics (CG), and we have shown the effectiveness in medical fields by using 3 dimensional image processing software, which we called "Volume Extractor". 3 dimensional images, such as CT and MRI, have a lot of information for human body, and it is an effective diagnosis tool. Volume Extractor (VE) is a practical 3D image processing software which was researched and developed at Iwate Prefectural University, Japan. The development of VE was initiated in 1998, and Ver. 3.0 is presently available for use.
