Lab Assignment for Cardiovascular Visualization using Volume Rendering
Minimum Requirements: OpenGL 3.3, Qt 5.5 with Qt3D module build via CMake
VOLUME DATA
the app supports internal DAT volume data format only. format is the following: HEADER: 16 bit width, 16 bit height, 16 bit depth, 16 bit bitsPerVoxel VOLUME: voxel data with bitsPerVoxel intensity resolution, e.g. if bitsPerVoxel is 8, 8-bit per voxel
to get more datasets, a tool is provided to convert PVM files to internal 8-bit DAT files. PVM is a file format defined by V^3: The Versatile Volume Viewer http://www.stereofx.org/volume.html
- get PVM files svn co svn://schorsch.efi.fh-nuernberg.de/dicom-data data http://www9.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/External/vollib/
- use pvm2dat <input.pvm> <output.dat> to convert this simply uses pvm2raw provided by V^3 to get the 8-bit volume, and adds the header info. https://bitbucket.org/lsz/pvm2raw
moreover, DICOM files can be converted to PVM files using , which is the tool that defines the PVM file format.
