Abstract
Systems and methods are provided rendering a three-dimensional volume. Scan data representing an anatomical object of a patient is acquired. A boundary of the object is identified in the scan data. A first lightmap is positioned inside the boundary of the object. A second lightmap is positioned outside the boundary of the object. The three-dimensional volume of the object is rendered from the scan data with lighting based on the first lightmap and second lightmap.
