| Human anatomy it may be, but the airways that riddle the space behind our noses take on an alien aspect in this unearthly rendering created by Kai-hung Fung, a radiologist at the Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital in Hong Kong. A computed tomography (CT) scan from a 33-year-old Chinese woman ... Normally, CT renderings meld slices together into smooth surfaces, but, in what he terms the "Rainbow Technique," Fung instead broke them apart, creating a topographical map of the airspaces described by the contour lines of individual slices, and colored according to the density of the tissues that border them. Fung digitally removed the bones, soft tissue, and fat from the rendering to create a solid "cast" of the sinuses' air envelope. "The sinuses are hollows in the bone just like the central cavity in a papaya," he says. One way to get a feel for the shape of such a cavity is to look at a cross section of it, but, he says, it's much more readily apparent in a mold. The upward-looking angle that Fung used was fascinating, says panel of judges member Sherry Marts. "You react [to the image] on two levels; it piques your curiosity … and then draws you in to the information that's contained in [it]." |

I am the software author and I want to add that a free version 4.0 update is no problem. When version 4 is out, there will be ways to get a free update, you just need to remember that you have been promised it!

DONE! XnView opened it in mere seconds, and I have it loaded right now. Of course, memory usage is high, almost 1 GB for the program alone, but no problems viewing the picture. I can zoom the picture around, but it requires some time.
Check out the resolution: 22620x15200, and created on Photoshop CS2 with a Macintosh. I suppose it's one of those high end workstations Apple was selling, with 8 cores and 8 GB of RAM.-Lashiec (November 15, 2007, 03:06 PM)
