Resumen
The visualization of the radiological results with more advanced
techniques than the current ones, such as Augmented Reality
and Virtual Reality technologies, represent a great advance for
medical professionals, by eliminating their imagination capacity
as an indispensable requirement for the understanding of
medical images. The problem is that for its application it is
necessary to segment the anatomical areas of interest, and this
currently involves the intervention of the human being. The
Nextmed project is presented as a complete solution that
includes DICOM images import, automatic segmentation of
certain anatomical structures, 3D mesh generation of the
segmented area, visualization engine with Augmented Reality
and Virtual Reality, all thanks to different software platforms
that have been implemented and detailed, including results
obtained from real patients. We will focus on the visualization
platform using both Augmented and Virtual Reality technologies
to allow medical professionals to work with 3d model
representation of medical images in a different way taking
advantage of new technologies.
