Abstract
A hidden structure of a volumetric data set is rendered in a medical image based on a volumetric data set received from a medical scanner. Reference information indicative of a parameter for a clip plane is received for rendering the hidden structure within the medical image. A differentiable rendering, DR, algorithm is applied on the received volumetric data set, which comprises determining a light accumulation along a viewing ray. The clip plane is approximated by including a smooth approximation to a Dirac delta distribution, which depends on the parameter comprised in the received reference information, in the determining of the light accumulation along the viewing ray. The parameter for the clip plane is optimized by optimizing an objective function. The medical image with the hidden structure visible is output for final rendering, and/or for display.
