MRI Angiography 3D reconstruction and Flythrough of Cerebral Aneurysm

This video shows a new technique that we are developing to automatically segment and mesh medical magnetic resonance imaging data sets of real patients inside Cinema 4D. In this case a MRI Angiography of a cerebral aneurysm. The data set was first post processed for noise reduction in after effects, and then was converted into a point cloud with over 9 million points inside Cinema 4d. This point cloud was then meshed inside of Cinema 4D using the DPIT EFFEX mesher. The challenging part is to create a useable point cloud, which we did with expression programmed in xpresso. On the left side you can see a fly through of the vessel starting at the aorta and ending in the aneurysm itself. On the right you see an overview of the location of the camera target at any given time. On the bottom right you see the data that the reconstruction was based on. The purpose of the project is to create a system that works more or less automatically with no input from the user. In this case the point cloud segmentation and the meshing were automatic but the flythrough itself was keyframed
