Abstract
An imaging system apparatus and operating method thereof utilize a volumetric resampling technique with interpolation to determine sample point values on user-defined paths traced through a volumetric image comprising a group of predefined data values, which are themselves samples of a continuous volumetric object. Data values to be displayed are determined from the sample point values using user-selected interpolation and visualization operating modes.
