Abstract
Disclosed herein are a computer system, an image processing method, and a computer-readable medium for interpolating volumetric medical image data. There is disclosed a hybrid interpolation procedure performed on the volumetric medical image data in accordance with spatial transforms. In the hybrid interpolation procedure, a different order of interpolation, respectively, is performed for at least two different dimensions of the volumetric medical image data. The different orders of interpolation can include bicubic interpolation and linear interpolation. Applications include registration of source volumetric medical images to target volumetric medical images and operations (e.g., rotation, re-scaling) invoking a transformation for medical image data visualization/display purposes.
