Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Description We conclude that using a carefully obtained BRDF (which only has to be acquired once) to create images of the brain's surface increases the images' realism. To obtain the parameters that we used for the BRDF renderings, visit http://medical-imaging.org.uk/cbrain.
Exploitation Route Developing more realistic model for medical training.
