UNIX-BASED SOFTWARE FOR 3D DISPLAY AND ANALYSIS

这项提议的总体目标是开发一种可运输和 易于使用的三维(3D)显示软件系统和 断层医学图像数据的分析。目前，该应用程序 以各种方式积极追求3D显示和分析技术 医疗领域，包括颅面外科计划，神经外科， 矫形外科，基于磁学的精神障碍分析 磁共振成像、心肺分析和放射治疗 计划。目前还没有可用的软件包 整合了各种高级3D成像工具的公共领域 在不同的中心开发，是可运输的广告，在这两个中心都很容易使用 影像研究和医疗环境。建议的软件是 意在填补这一空白。 该提案的具体目标是设计、开发、测试和 文档：(1)适合想象的用户界面系统 研究环境，并且可以很容易地适应临床应用 环境；(2)结合了各种 到目前为止开发的复杂的3D成像工具。 该软件将整合各种已建立的软件 标准，包括Unix操作系统、C语言、X 窗口系统，以及ACR-NEMA协议。该软件将是 设计做真正的多维多维加工 这样才会让S对图像数据的分析变得简单方便 时变3D图像集(与动态结构相关) 分析静态图像数据。

The overall goal of this proposal is to develop a transportable and easy-to-use software system for the three-dimensional (3D) display and analysis of tomographic medical image data. Currently, the application of 3D display and analysis techniques is actively pursued in a variety of medical areas including craniofacial surgical planning, neurosurgery, orthopedics, analysis of psychiatric disorders based on magnetic resonance imaging, cardio-pulmonary analysis, and radiation therapy planning. There is no software package currently available in the public domain that incorporates a variety of advanced 3D imaging tools developed at various centers, is transportable ad is easy to use in both imaging research and medical environments. The proposed software is intended to fill this gap. The specific aim of the proposal is to design, develop, test, and document: (1) a user-interface system that is suitable for an imagining research environment and that can easily adapt to a clinical application environment; (2) a core software that incorporates a variety of sophisticated 3D imaging tools developed to date. The software will incorporate a variety of established software standards, including the UNIX operating system, the C language, the X window system, and the ACR-NEMA protocols. The software will be designed to do true multi-dimensional processing of multi-dimensional image data so that it will be just s easy and convenient to analyze time-varying 3D image sets (pertaining to dynamic structures) as it is to analyze static image data.
