   Keywords : volume rendering; volume raycasting; directcompute; directx11; performance;

   Abstract : Volume rendering is quite an old concept of representing images, dating back to the 1980's. It is very useful in the medical field for visualizing the results of a computer tomography (CT) and magnet resonance tomography (MRT) in 3D. READ MORE

3. 2. Out-of-Core Multi-Resolution Volume Rendering of Large Data Sets

   University essay from Medie- och Informationsteknik

   Author : Fredrik Lundell; [2011]
   Keywords : out-of-core; volume rendering; raycasting; large datasets; gpgpu; streaming; multi-resolution; openCL; bricking; blocking; adaptive; intrablock interpolation; voreen;

   Abstract : A modality device can today capture high resolution volumetric data sets and as the data resolutions increase so does the challenges of processing volumetric data through a visualization pipeline. Standard volume rendering pipelines often use a graphic processing unit (GPU) to accelerate rendering performance by taking beneficial use of the parallel architecture on such devices. READ MORE
