Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for automatically generating a three-dimensional (3D) polygonal model with color mapping from a volume rendering. The method includes generating a volume rendering from volumetric data. The method includes receiving a user selection to launch model and color generation. The method includes automatically generating a 3D mask from the volume rendering by segmenting at least one object in the volume rendering in response to the user selection. The method includes automatically generating a 3D mesh for the at least one object based on the 3D mask in response to the user selection. The method includes automatically computing mesh colors based on the volume rendering in response to the user selection. The mesh colors are applied to the 3D mesh to generate a multi-color 3D polygonal model. The method includes automatically outputting the multi-color 3D polygonal model in response to the user selection.
