Communications of the ACM, 1989 Volumetric rendering speaks volumes for data 20 orders of magnitude apart—from human anatomy to neuroanatomy, and from electrostatic charges of macromolecules to failure analysis of manufactured parts.

Real-Time Volume-Rendering Image Denoising Based on Spatiotemporal Weighted Kernel Prediction. [PDF]
J ImagingVolumetric Path Tracing (VPT) based on Monte Carlo (MC) sampling often requires numerous samples for high-quality images, but real-time applications limit samples to maintain interaction rates, leading to significant noise.

Global illumination rendering versus volume rendering for the forensic evaluation of stab wounds using computed tomography. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 We compared three-dimensional (3D) CT images of stabbing victims subjected to volume-rendering (VR) or global illumination-rendering (GIR), a new technique now available for the reconstruction of 3D CT images.

PRISM: An open source framework for the interactive design of GPU volume rendering shaders. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2018 Direct volume rendering has become an essential tool to explore and analyse 3D medical images. Despite several advances in the field, it remains a challenge to produce an image that highlights the anatomy of interest, avoids occlusion of important ...

Gaze-directed volume rendering [PDF]
Proceedings of the 1990 symposium on Interactive 3D graphics - SI3D '90, 1990 We direct our gaze at an object by rotating our eyes or head until the object's projection falls on the fovea, a small region of enhanced spatial acuity near the center of the retina. In this paper, we explore methods for encorporating gaze direction into rendering algorithms.
