This study introduces an interface for exporting medical volume data, like bones and tissues, into IGES files. This enables direct use of the data for engineering analysis, bridging a gap in current medical imaging systems.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Computer-Aided Engineering
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Existing medical image processing and virtual surgery systems offer advanced 3D visualization and data manipulation.
  • A significant limitation is the inability of these systems to export volume data for engineering analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an interface that enables the export of medical volume data for engineering applications.
  • To facilitate the direct use of anatomical data in engineering analysis workflows.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an interface implementing the Initial Graphics Exchange Specification (IGES).
  • Integration of the interface with existing medical image processing systems.

Main Results:
