Method and system for multiple view volume rendering
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for generating multiple image views of an object, the method comprising:
- identifying a plurality of view directions relative to an image of an object;
automatically volume rendering a volumetric data set with a processor based on the plurality of view directions;
generating an image for each view direction with the processor using the rendered data;
modifying one of the plurality of view directions;
automatically modifying the other of the plurality of view directions with the processor to maintain the relative positions between the plurality of view directions; and
generating with the processor a second image for each of the plurality of view directions using the rendered data after said automatically modifying the other of the plurality of view directions.

1. A method for generating multiple image views of an object, the method comprising:
-
identifying a plurality of view directions relative to an image of an object; automatically volume rendering a volumetric data set with a processor based on the plurality of view directions; generating an image for each view direction with the processor using the rendered data; modifying one of the plurality of view directions; automatically modifying the other of the plurality of view directions with the processor to maintain the relative positions between the plurality of view directions; and generating with the processor a second image for each of the plurality of view directions using the rendered data after said automatically modifying the other of the plurality of view directions. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for visualization of multiple volume renderings of a volumetric data set, the method comprising:
-
identifying at least one crop plane on the volumetric data set; automatically generating a plurality of different views with a processor using the volumetric data based on the at least one crop plane; displaying on a single display images of the plurality of different views; modifying one of the plurality of different views; and automatically modifying with the processor the other of the plurality of different views maintain the relative positions between the plurality of views. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
