Abstract

This paper presents three required functionality when volume datasets are aimed to be visualized in ubiquitous platforms: support of segmented volume datasets, navigation inside the volume and direct visualization of DICOM datasets. DICOM is the de-facto standard in the medical imaging field. The results shows that these functionalities can be achieved using the Volume Rendering component implemented in X3DOM in several web browsers in different platforms (from desktop computer to tablets and mobile phones).

Keywords: Volume rendering Medical imaging DICOM Visualization X3DOM Ubiquitous platforms
