Abstract :
We developed a method for an observation system of time-sequenced images of heart, vessels, and surrounding organs. The observation images are constructed using multi-sliced CT tomogram images by applying texture mapping technology, one of which is namely 3D-pseudo solid image. The generated images could be observed like as a solid modeled image and be generated faster than by using solid model. The method can be realized on a contemporary PC (which means movable) and also applicable to be a part of the intuitive observation system developed already
