ct3 - A Simple Mousewheel-based 3D Image Browser for Medical Images 1.0

File exchange contains a wealth of full-functioned, gui-based 3D medical image viewers. ct3 is a simple alternative that plots a 3D array containing CT or MRI greyscale values into 3 separate windows, and allows the use of the mousewheel to page from slice to slice. It allows the user to quickly identify features of interest and determine their location within the image.function ct3(im,w)Allows simple browsing of a CT scan using the mousewheel. Assumes a gridspacing ratio of 3:1 axial thickness:radial thickness for display purposesUsage: ct3(im) will open Figures 1,2, and 3 and use imshow() to display the CT dataset contained in "im" in all 3 orthogonal planes (sagittal, coronal, axial). Scrolling the mousewheel will move to the next/previous slice in the active figure window. Clicking the mouse will print the current slice number of all figure windows in the console.input: -im: 3D array of grayscale values. This function assumes that the 1st and 2nd dimensions of the array contain the radial (or sagittal/coronal) data, and the 3rd dimension of "im" contains axial data. This function also assumes a voxel size ratio of 1:1:3. -w : (optional) window to use for display. Default=[-140 160] 1x2 numerical array that contains the range of values of interest to be displayed using ct3 note - use Matlab built-in function "imcontrast" (Image Proc Toolbox) or plot the image data using hist() to easily determine the proper window for your datasetoutput: noneex: ct3(im) ct3(im, [-140 160])
