Abstract

During the last decade there was an increasing trend in using 3D reconstruction for medical applications. Until now it has been used in medical diagnosis [1], surgical planning [2] and even in special prothesis reconstruction [3]. The reconstruction methods are very different: from encoding the 3D relationship of data value ranges in different colors [1] to perhaps the most well known one based on octree encoding [4].
