Examining Topology on Computer Generated Brain Surfaces
Abstract:
When creating an isosurface the overall topology of the surface is
crucial to accurately depicting the original. Medical imagery is a prime
example of when the surface created needs to be topologically correct,
otherwise it is difficult to differentiate a medical problem from a
computer graphics problem. In this project MRI scans of a brain are used
to generate an isosurface and then the topology is checked. Two of the
most popular methods for generating an isosurface are used; Marching Cubes
and Marching Tetrahedron. Surfaces created from both algorithms are
checked for topological problems and compared.
