Abstract:
Pose determination of 3D objects is a topic of active research,
particularly in the area of medical imaging. The determination of the
pose or orientation of a 3D object in a 3D dataset can be viewed as a
two-fold problem: 1) The determination of the orientation of the object;
and 2) the visualization of the object along with the determined
orientation of the object. An attempt has been made to compute and
visualize the orientation of the left ventricle (LV) of the heart from
SPECT data. A semi-automatic technique to first filter the aquired SPECT
data and then compute the 3D orientation of the LV is under development.
Volume visualization techniques have been employed to better visualize
and comprehend the structure and orientation of the LV.
