Abstract :
In this paper, an interactive medical image visualization system to support medical therapy has been introduced, where 3D organ model with the corresponding medical image is visualized interactively for diagnosis and surgical planning. To show effectiveness of the proposed system, 3D liver model generated from CT data has been utilized in consideration of its deformable characteristics by respiration as well as appearance. In addition, a hand gesture interface is applied on the graphical user interface for providing more natural and intuitive interactivity.
