A system for visualizing a 3D volume, represented by a 3D data set stored in a memory (890) as contiguous 2D slices with successive depths. A memory cache 895 provides faster access to part of the data set. A processor 860 creates a 2D representation of the volume by casting an imaginary bundle of n1×n2parallel...http://www.google.fr/patents/US20060170682?utm_source=gb-gplus-shareBrevet US20060170682 - Caching For Volume Visualization
