“…This is done by isolating each region first, then extracting a cloud of points from each region using the Marching Cubes algorithm, and finally constructing an implicit representation from the point clouds from which the surface can be extracted. The RAM method (Region-aware modeling) described in [24] organizes implicit functions, which represent different regions of the heterogeneous object, into a vector of implicit functions by means of which the computational model is manipulated. This representation allows regions to be considered as a whole instead of isolated parts of the heterogeneous object, for example, in the model of Figure 5-b) liver tumors are modeled as an integral part of a human liver.…”
