A method of secure file conversion is disclosed. The method includes storing a decrypted version of a previously encrypted file, the encryption and decryption occurring using public key infrastructure, in an allotted memory location of a memory for which read-only access to the stored decrypted file is provided. Next, the memory location is monitored for an attempt to access at least one memory location other than the allotted location. Finally, a file format of the stored decrypted file is converted, the conversion being aborted upon detecting attempt to access at least one memory location other than the allotted memory location. A converter is further disclosed.

A system and method for detecting the aortic valve is provided. The method comprises: (a) casting rays on a slice of a computed tomography (CT) dataset of an aorta; (b) computing a Gaussian model for voxels on the slice, wherein the Gaussian model produces a threshold; (c) growing a circle from a point within the aorta until control points of the circle reach the threshold; (d) computing a repulsion vector for each control point reaching the threshold; (e) repositioning the circle according to an average of the repulsion vectors, wherein if the circle is within the aorta, repeating steps (c-e) until the circle is not within the aorta; (f) calculating a statistical value for the circle; (g) projecting a copy of the circle onto an adjacent slice; (h) reducing the radius of the copy of the circle; and (i) repeating steps (c-h) on remaining CT slices until the aortic valve is detected.

A system and corresponding method for organ rendering are provided, where the system includes a processor, an imaging adapter in signal communication with the processor for receiving organ scan data indicative of an organ, a segmentation unit in signal communication with the processor for segmenting an outer surface of the organ, and a ray-casting unit in signal communication with the processor for providing a maximum intensity projection substantially normal to the segmented outer surface for each of a plurality of rays, and for forming a ray collection by casting each of the plurality of rays from a center of the organ through the respective projection to the segmented outer surface; and where the method includes segmenting an outer surface of an organ, providing a maximum intensity projection substantially normal to the segmented outer surface for each of a plurality of rays, and forming a ray collection by casting each of the plurality of rays from a center of the organ through the respective projection to the segmented outer surface.
