The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center has introduced etdips (exploratory two/three-dimensional image processing system), a free 3-D data visualization, animation, segmentation, and collaboration application.
Jointly developed by the NIHCC and the National University of Singapore, the Windows 2000/NT/9x-based etdips offers a number of features, including Fast Ray Cast, Hybrid, MIP, and x-ray volume rendering. Iso-surface extraction, surface rendering, and real-time volume rendering (using Mitsubishi’s RT-Viz vg500 real-time volume-rendering card) are also available, according to the NIHCC.
