Interactive virtual endoscopy of upper GI tract and stomach.

Rahul Sharma

Abstract

We have developed an interactive virtual endoscopy system for the training of doctors to hone their skills. In this document, we describe the extraction of the model of the upper GI tract and stomach, and the calculation of automated walk-through for navigating through the GI tract. We also present the functionality of mapping arbitrary texture to the 3D model as a viewing upgrade.
