Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI) is a prior step to Alzheimer's Disease(AD). It is different from AD which is seriously affecting daily life. Particularly, the hippocampus could be charged a crucial function for forming memory. MCI has a high risk about progress to AD. Our investigated research for a relationship between hippocampus and AD has been studied. The measurement of hippocampus volumetric is one of the most commonly used method. The three dimensional reconstructed medical images could be passible to interpret and its examination in various aspects but the cost of brain research with the medical equipment is very high. In this study, 3D visualization was performed from a series of brain Magnetic Resonance Images(MRI) and we have designed and implemented a competitive software tool based on the open libraries of Visualization ToolKit(VTK). Consequently, our visualization software tool could be useful to various medical fields and specially prognosis and diagnosis for MCI patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
