Abstract
Image processing is carried out by accepting an array of voxels that include data representing a physical property of a 3-dimensional object, segmenting the array of voxels into a plurality of regional subarrays of voxels that respectively satisfy predetermined criteria, transforming the subarrays into respective triangular meshes, the meshes having triangles that surround the subarrays and intercept the outer voxels of the subarrays, and rendering the triangular meshes on a display
