Precision measuring made easy

A flexible framework for real-time creation of volume rendered medical images

3mensio SDK™ provides a flexible, private-label framework for real-time calculation of volume rendered images. It is designed for developers to build or expand their medical imaging applications or components. It uses the power of the .NET platform and integrates the latest innovations in off-the-shelf graphics hardware. In addition, 3mensio SDK™ ensures a faster time-to-market and dramatically reduces development costs.

Use the power of .NET

3mensio SDK™ allows you to quickly develop your own imaging applications. It leverages the power of the .NET framework to provide a high-end, easy-to-use interface.

Features of 3mensio SDK™

Code in any .NET language including C# and Visual Basic.
Native C++ interface available for integration into applications that are not built on .NET.
Available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions
- Efficient memory management strategies used in both versions.
- The 64-bit version can generally display datasets up to 10 GB in size.

Standard non-proprietary graphics hardware

3mensio SDK™ uses the latest innovations in graphics hardware, without expensive, proprietary systems.

Benefits of 3mensio SDK™

Uses readily available, off-the-shelf graphics cards.
Integrates Microsoft’s Direct3D rendering technology for full control over the graphics hardware.
Works effectively on the most commonly available platforms.
Does not require a specific make or model of graphics processor.
Scales effectively from workstations to laptops.
Includes a graphics card validation process to ensure that the system’s performance always meets your expectations:
- Precision checks ensure optimal image quality.
- Shader validation ensures all features work correctly.

Local and remote implementation

3mensio SDK™ can be used for both local and remote implementation:

Local: develop high-performance applications with reasonable hardware requirements,
Remote: create applications that can be embedded inside a web browser, or create thin clients.

Flexible licensing options

Royalty-free or rights-managed packages available.
Customize the licensing interface for transparent integration into your application.

Exception handling and error reporting

The 3mensio SDK™’s logging system makes debugging easy.

Advanced rendering modes

Advanced visualization is 3mensio’s core competency. With our technology you can generate high-quality images from three-dimensional volumetric data. Data from medical or industrial equipment or certain types of scientific simulators is easily converted.

3mensio SDK™ provides several rendering modes that support large datasets at interactive frame rates:

Multi-planar reformatting (MPR)
Shaded volume rendering
Intensity projection (MIP, AIP, MinIP)
Multi-mode rendering
Flythrough
Curved MPR (CPR)

Segmentation & volume reduction

Volume visualization applications allow you to rapidly explore their datasets. 3mensio SDK™ has volume reduction features to remove irrelevant parts and highlight relevant ones. Your customers will obtain the features they need to carry out their work more efficiently.

Sample segmentation and volume reduction techniques include:

Clip planes
Volume of interest
Slabbing
Masking
Sculpting

Other modes

4D rendering
Embedded geometry
Depth rendering
Volume textured geometry
Custom overlays
Off-screen rendering
Dynamic render quality adjustment
