X-Ray Rendering

For many applications in the medical field, the rendering of realistic X-ray images is compulsory. This proprietary module computes such a rendering based on several possible input data:

• from surface triangulated meshes: by defining the position of an emitter and receptor in the 3D space, an image is rendered. A realistic medical image of organs can thus be obtained,
• from volumetric data (Dicom format or other): a 3D medical image can directly get imported in SOFA. By generating a simulation scenario with X-ray rendering, it becomes possible to navigate around the image volume and even add physics to it, i.e. animate/deform the imported data.
