How do I reconstruct a DICOM image and then re-slice it along a different axis?

Hey,

So I have a CT Scan consisting of 2D Images, and I was wondering if there was a way to reconstruct the 3D image and slice along the image in a different axis (that I define) using the data.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thank you, Bryan

Answer 1

It sounds like these would form a nice 3-d matrix. Is it easy to align all these slices? If it is, then you can use the slice command to look through the 3-d matrix in any number of ways.

Answer 2

1. How do I process a Sequence of Files?
2. Use the above steps to insert each image into the corresponding slice of a three-dimensional image, e.g:

for ii = 1:20
  X(:,:,ii) = imread(['image',num2str(ii),'.jpg']);
end

1. 3! Now use any number of volume visualizing tools. A good place to start might be: slice-o-matic
