Background:
Three-Dimensional visualization of brain tumors is very useful in both diagnosis and treatment stages of brain cancer.
Discussion:
It helps the oncologist/neurosurgeon to take the best decision in Radiotherapy and/or surgical resection techniques. 3D visualization involves two main steps; tumor segmentation and 3D modeling.
Conclusion:
In this article, we illustrate the most widely used segmentation and 3D modeling techniques for brain tumors visualization. We also survey the public databases available for evaluation of the mentioned techniques.
