US 2015/0029184 A1 · THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODEL DATA GENERATION DEVICE, METHOD AND PROGRAM

Abstract

A liver region extraction unit and a structural element extraction unit extracts the liver region and structural elements, such as the hepatic artery and the hepatic vein, from a three-dimensional image, and a surface data generation unit generates surface data of the liver region and surface data of the structural elements. A pattern adding unit adds a textured pattern to at least one of the surfaces of the liver region and the structural elements, and a data generation unit generate three-dimensional model data by combining the surface data of the liver region and the surface data of the structural elements after the addition of the textured pattern. A three-dimensional model making device makes a three-dimensional model of the liver based on the three-dimensional model data.

Dependent claims

A three-dimensional model data generation device that generates three-dimensional model data for making a three-dimensional model of an object which includes a plurality of structural elements from three-dimensional image data representing a three-dimensional image of the object, the device comprising:

a pattern adding unit for adding a textured pattern to at least one of a surface of the object represented by surface data of the object and surfaces of the structural elements represented by surface data of the structural elements generated from the three-dimensional image data;
and
a data generation unit for generating the three-dimensional model data by combining the surface data of the object and the surface data of the structural elements including the surface data to which the textured pattern is added.
