I use the OsiriX Lite version, which is free. The MIALite plugin was also free. This was on a Haswell MacBook Pro running Yosemite. I didn't have the presence of mind to get the full body scan of my dog when the opportunity arose. Maybe for that I would have needed the 64 bit version (and pay for it). But for 3 Tesla brain scans the 32 bit version is sufficient. Does volumetric rendering without any plugins. And sufficiently well I can recognize the face!
The segmentation / region growing can identify different compartments (at least of the brain), so perhaps with some parameter sweeps on starting positions and thresholds, one could create rooms and passageways. I would think major organs would be easier to isolate, but I don't have that data. What could be more satisfying that shooting-up unwelcome cellular activity? -----Original Message----- From: Friam [mailto:friam-boun...@redfish.com] On Behalf Of glen ep ropella Sent: Wednesday, July 08, 2015 8:40 AM To: The Friday Morning Applied Complexity Coffee Group Subject: Re: [FRIAM] My charity is more effective than your charity!

I have been using ginkgo cad, the free version of which works pretty well.

I'm just starting to dip my toes into 3D modeling (for another project). I wonder how difficult it would be to create a 3D "world" modeled off the DICOM images? It'd be kinda cool running a little avatar around over the kidneys and through the ribs, to grandmother's goiter we go! -- glen e. p. ropella, 971-255-2847, http://tempusdictum.com ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com
