ABSTRACT

In the advancement of Computer graphics tools/libraries used on Web-based services with its associated technologies and multimedia for making user friendly system. In this paper, we have proposed an approach for displaying the 3D Medical volume data visualization on the web-based system. Through which, the 3D volume dataset of many resolution sizes can be visualized onto the web using webGL with HTML5. Here we have used VTK tool for slicing the 3D Medical dataset. In the addition, this system can be accessed by many users at the same time. The 3D volume dataset is visualized with the user's perspective. If he/she wants to select any desired slice then the user can access and fetch that slice. This system has been tested by four different 3D Medical volume datasets with different resolution sizes from 6 MB to 3.15 GB.
