Abstract
ABSTRACT The diversity and utility of cinematic volume rendering (CVR) for medical image visualisation have grown rapidly in recent years. At the same time, volume rendering on augmented and virtual reality systems is attracting greater interest with the advance of the WebXR standard. This paper introduces CVR extensions to the open-source visualisation toolkit (vtk.js) that supports WebXR. This paper also summarises two studies that were conducted to evaluate the speed and quality of various CVR techniques on a variety of medical data. This work is intended to provide the first open-source solution for CVR that can be used for in-browser rendering as well as for WebXR research and applications. This paper aims to help medical imaging researchers and developers make more informed decision when selecting CVR algorithms for their applications. Our software and this paper also provide a foundation for new research and product development at the intersection of medical imaging, web visualisation, XR and CVR.
