3D Anatomical Structures


3dAnat logo
 

At the heart of our simulation work is an innovative method for building accurate, 3D reconstructions of human anatomy. Our primary focus has been in the rebuilding of abdominal organs and vasculature, by using real patient MR and CT data as reference models, and cadaveric photography for accurate texturing.

Our lab can therefore construct any organ system, catered specifically to any patient, condition, or surgical procedure. Our method allows us to build organ systems in a variety of resolutions, ranging from low end meshes ideal for volumetric simulation, to high end meshes used for photo realistic animation and illustration. This gives us optimal mid-ground for the stunning real-time deformation models used in surgical simulation.
