Welcome to the Stanford Radiology 3D Medical Imaging Laboratory

Mission

To develop and apply innovative techniques for efficient analysis and display of medical imaging data through interdisciplinary collaboration.

Goals

Education: To train physicians and technologists locally and worldwide in the latest developments in 3D imaging.

Research: To develop new approaches to the exploration and analysis of diagnostic images that result in (a) new and/or more cost-effective diagnostic approaches, and (b) new techniques for the design and planning of therapy.

Patient Care: To deliver valid, clinically relevant visualization and analysis of medical imaging data to the Stanford community.

Community: tours available.

CT Aortogram and Runoff,
This image is a 3D volume rendered reconstruction of a CT aortogram and runoff angiogram. The primary two-dimensional images were edited on a GE Advantage Windows workstation to remove the spine and pelvis. Threshold subtraction and hand-editing techniques were utilized to isolate vascular structures. Opacity curves for volume-rendering were set to depict contrast-enhanced vascular structures in light red and calcified atherosclerotic plaques in white. More
