3D Vertebrae CT Images Reconstruction and Visualization with Optimized Marching Cubes Algorithm
Abstract:In the actual operation of clinical medicine andteaching research
especially in the pedicle screw implant surgery
a threedimensional reconstruction ofthe vertebrae is required
for the time of reconstruction is too long
and theresolution is low
based on the surface rendering theory of 3D reconstruction.First the 54 DICOM vertebrae CT images that have the resolution of 512×512 werepreprocessed with the bilateralfilterdenoising algorithm. On the basis of the traditional Marching Cubes(MC)algorithm to improve
we first select the seed voxel
with the region growingalgorithm
extract all the voxels that contain isosurfaces
and then through thegolden segmentation instead of the traditional linear interpolation tocalculate the equivalent point
reduce the calculations of public edge
and thenuse VTK and OpenGL to implement the 3D reconstruction and visualization of thevertebrae on GPU quickly and accurately
thus the efficiency of the algorithm isimproved dramatically.
