Abstract

Visualization of medical data requires the extraction of surfaces that represent the boundaries of objects of interest. This paper describes a method that combines finding these boundaries accurately and ensuring that this surface consists of high quality triangles. The latter is important for subsequent visualization and simulation. We show that the surfaces created using this method are both accurate and have good quality triangles.
