Abstract :
This work presents some image processing methods of virtual Chinese human (VCH) dataset, including the multislice registration, reduction of noise and artifacts and segmentation techniques. A new hybrid volume render method based on parallel computing is also introduced for high resolution visualization of the large dataset of VCH. The results of visualization show that the methods work well and can be used for high resolution visualization of VCH dataset.
