Abstract: ObjectiveTo implement two typical algorithms, Marching Cubes and Ray-casting, of medical image 3-D visualization using Visualization Toolkit (VTK) with VC++.MethodsSkull and scarfskin of brain were reconstructed based on CT data. Results and ConclusionVTK is a powerful tool with many advantages, such as easy to use, fast, good interaction ability, good results for image reconstruction and so on.

Key words: Visualization Toolkit (VTK), 3-D reconstruction, medical image
