Abstract

Cross-sectional imaging of human organ serves as a critical tool to provide diagnostic results of many diseases. Based on a unique body coordinate system, we present a method that we use to reconstruct any cross-sectional imaging of organ regardless of its original section going along which scanning or cutting axis. In clinical medicine, this method enables a patient to undergo only one scanning, and then the doctor can observe the structure of lesion sections along any axis, and it can help find changes of lesions at the same section from different scanning results and thus quantify diagnosis by cross-sectional imaging. Significant progress has thus been made towards quantitative diagnosis cross-sectional imaging.<br />Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures.
