Abstract

The invention relates to a computer-implemented method comprising the steps of: (S100) presenting a surface (S) comprising segments derived from volumetric data (VD) in a virtual reality user interface (6); (S200) presenting volumetric data (VD) in the virtual reality user interface (6); (S300) applying a signed distance field technique (SDF) to the segments in reference to the presented volumetric data (VD); (S400) adjusting at least one of the segments based on a result of applying the signed distance field technique (SDF) so that the presented surface data complies with the presented volumetric data (VD); and (S500) saving the adjusted at least one of the segments in a data file (DF) separately from a data file of the volumetric data (VD).
