Abstract

This paper presents three classes of speed-up techniques for calculating high-quality perspective Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) images from Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) data. The method of choice is a combination of Ray Acceleration by Distance Coding (RADC) with Closest Vessel Projection (CVP); this technique combines a five-to ten-fold speed improvement with improved visualization of blood vessels.
