Methods and apparatus for recording anonymized volumetric data from medical image visualization software

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed, cause one or more processors to at least:

• anonymize a medical image outside of a region of interest based on an extraction parameter by degrading the medical image outside a region corresponding to the region of interest and maintaining a resolution of the medical image inside the region corresponding to the region of interest, the extraction parameter based on at least one of an image capture parameter or an instruction from a remote system;
• and
• generate a compressed local archive based on the anonymized medical image.

A method comprising:

• anonymizing, by executing an instruction with a processor, a medical image outside of a region of interest based on an extraction parameter by degrading the medical image outside a region corresponding to the region of interest and maintaining a resolution of the medical image inside the region corresponding to the region of interest, the extraction parameter based on at least one of an image capture parameter or an instruction from a remote system;
• and
• generating, by executing an instruction with the processor, a compressed local archive based on the anonymized medical image.
