INTRODUCTION
3D-DOCTOR is an advanced, 3D imaging software developed by
Able Software Corp .It is an advanced 3D modeling, image processing and
measurement software for MRI, CT, PET, microscopy, scientific, and
industrial imaging applications D-Doctor supports both grayscale and color
images stored in DICOM, TIFF, Interfile, GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP, PGM, RAW
or other image file formats.
DOCTOR uses its unique vector-based technologies to create better
3D models from volumetric Unique vector-based technologies for better 3D
model creation and easy editing .

SUB-TOPICS

3D Doctor Disadvantages
Very expensive Maintaining is a big task because it needs frequent
upgrades which is also expensive

III.

SUMMARY GENERALIZATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS: TOWARD THE

PURSUIT OF BEST PRACTICES
3d Doctor is another technology that maybe useful in the field of
medicine, applying it to our daily life our hospitals maybe more
innovative and more accurate on doing more research on human anatomy.
It is best practice to support this type of technology and do research for
another improvement of the 3d doctor technology

HISTORY

Before 3D doctor was introduced there is also a 2d Doctor.The 2-D Doctor

is a self-help guide developed by Bio-Rad that enables you to identify and
troubleshoot your 2-D gel issues. Comprehensive solutions and suggestions are
provided to help solve 2-D gel electrophoresis challenges.

SHORT DESCRIPTION

3D-DOCTOR is an advanced, 3D imaging software developed by Able

Software Corp. It does 3D image segmentation, 3D surface modeling, rendering,
volume rendering, 3D image processing, deconvolution, registration, automatic
alignment, measurements, and many other functions.

HOW IT WORKS ( with illustration)

Surgery today is still similar to what it did three thousand years ago: the
surgeons use their hands to directly control instruments and they use their eyes to
provide them with feedback about the effect of their manipulations. The amount of
information they have before a surgery is critical to the success of the operation.
The developments in 3D imaging technology over the recent years have been
focusing on the goals to not only let the physicians and surgeons to see better
inside the body, but also create physical models from CT (Computed Tomography)
and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Using the model a surgeon is able to
perform a "mock" surgery prior to ever entering the operating room. Some
surgeons find that minutes or hours of operating time can be saved by careful
preparation using the model.

SPECIFIC APPLICATION
Image Segmentation of Tumor and 3D Rendering

The goal of this work is to extract the tumor and to create 3D models and
volume rendering from 2D slice images. T1 FLAIR and T2 weighted images of the
same slice used for glioma tumor extraction are given in Figures 2(a) and (b). As a
part of pre processing, skull stripping was performed. Skull stripping is a method of
removing the skull and non brain intracranial tissues like fat, muscle, skin etc., that
surround the surface of brain cortex and cerebellum in the brain. Brain Extraction
was necessary to avoid the misclassifications of the surrounding tissues, skin and
scalp as WM or GM. By removing this object, non-brain tissues will be removed
and, only soft tissues will remain in the image. Skull stripping was based the on
morphological operation known as erosion, using a disc shaped structuring
element, which resulted in the re- moval of thin connections between the brain and
non brain portions. Thus a skull stripped brain mask was obtained and this method
was automated for every image slice.
Using MeshLab to Reduce the Total Number of Faces Describing the 3D
Model
The 3D model of kidney obtained through the use of ITK-SNAP typically is of very
large size and typically is described by a very large number of surface triangles.
MeshLab could be very helpful in reducing the total number of surface triangles
that are needed to describe the 3D model satisfactorily. It also serves as a tool to
smoothen the reconstructed 3D geometry; after using smoothing features provided
by MeshLab, it may be necessary to scale the reconstructed 3D models to the
correct dimensions, if the original dimensions are to be strictly retained. MeshLab
can also improve the triangle quality of surface triangles of the 3D model. It can
also reduce the file size.

RELEVANCE TO INDUSTRY NEEDS

The Need of 3d doctor in the industry is highly demanded because health is

the most important to us that why most doctor before they go on surgery they must
study the organ part of the patient before they begin the procedure. Doctors usually
relying on the model structure so that they can identify the parts they could
encounter during operations.
