A fast way to visualize the brain surface with volume rendering of MRI data
Journal of Digital Imaging, 11/04/09

Matsumoto S et al. – The result was reproducible in that as long as the seed was located within the cerebral white matter, identical segmentation was achieved for each dataset. Although the pipeline ran with gross segmentation error along the floor of the cranial cavity, it performed well along the cranial vault so that subsequent volume rendering permitted the observation of the sulco–gyral pattern over cerebral convexities. Use of this pipeline followed by volume rendering is a handy approach to the visualization of the brain surface from 3D MRI data.
