Abstract

The present invention provides an anatomical visualization system comprising a first database that comprises a plurality of 2-D slice images generated by scanning a structure. A second database is also provided that comprises a 3-D computer model of the scanned structure. Software can then segment regions in the images. The user may also designate regions such as the aortic region (220) defined by branch line (255) having a start location (260) contained in a start plane (265), and an end location (270) contained in an end plane (275). Then for each vessel region determined in the previous step a centroid path is then calculated by using an averaging method.
