Abstract—3D Integral Imaging (also referred to as 3D
Holoscopic imaging) methodology uses the principle of “Fly’s
eye” and hence allows natural viewing of objects (i.e. fatigue
free viewing); 3D-holoscopic technology produces images that
are true optical models. This technology is based on physical
principles with duplication of light fields. In this paper, a new
method of visualization medical 3D integral images is proposed.
Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine data images
(DICOM) taken from CT, MRI, PET and US images that
produced by 3D-Doctor software to generate medical 3D
integral images visualization of anatomy without glass in natural
light. The method is mainly based on multiprocessor ray tracing
system as renderer. The medical 3D content is captured in real
time with the content viewed by multiple viewers independently
of their position, without the needs of 3D eyewear. Experimental
results show validation of the new algorithm and demonstrated
that medical 3D integral images content can be displayed on
commercially available multi-view auto-stereoscopic display.
Medical 3D integral images content is parsed into
multiprocessor ray tracing system, consequently, short time of
medical 3D integral images movie of such pelvis scene is
generated and displayed on PC screen, LCD and Holovizio
display.
