    摘要: A method is disclosed for the solid modeling of objects that is particularly suitable to modeling objects obtained from scan data, typically voxel-based data, for example medical imaging data. The method provides a more direct approach to providing solid modeling capabilities in modeling complex objects, such as organic objects, that are identified through a segmentation of the scanned data. The voxel-based data is obtained, and segmented to identify in the data the surface of the object. The segmentation is preferably accomplished using a graph cuts/level set method to obtain a grid of signed distance function data. The signed distance function data is then interpolated using wavelets, to produce a functional representation model of the object. The model does not require tessellation, and may be relatively compact. In particular, the resulting wavelet analysis is inherently amenable to multi-resolution analysis and compaction.

    摘要: Claimed is an imaging and diagnostic system and method for focal scanning of a specimen using optical projection tomographic microscopy and computer generation of three-dimensional images. One embodiment comprises a light source and an imaging system having an adjustable focal position which acquires a plurality of digital 2D projection images of biological tissue placed within a specimen tube that translates and rotates past an optical lens in a helical pattern. A computer captures the images and generates a 3D composite image. Also claimed is a system and method for preparing a specimen for optical microscopy. One embodiment comprises fixing, staining, and/or optically clearing biological tissue within a microfluidic specimen chamber prior to placement in a specimen tube.

    摘要: Starting with a solid model of a 3D object, an accurate skeleton is produced by minimizing internal and edge errors of an initial approximate skeleton. To produce the initial approximate skeleton, the boundary of the solid is densely sampled to obtain a set of surface data points. Delaunay triangulation is performed on the surface data points and exterior and spurious tetrahedra are removed, leaving substantially interior tetrahedra. Circumspheres are constructed that enclose the tetrahedra, and the centers of the circumspheres are connected based on tetrahedra adjacency, to form a Voronoi diagram. Closed Voronoi cells are identified comprising the initial approximate skeleton. The position of skeleton interior vertices are then adjusted to minimize their error, producing a refined polygonal approximation of the skeleton interior geometry. Positions of the skeleton edge vertices are adjusted to minimize the edge error, yielding an accurate polygonal approximation of the skeleton.
