A method and gesture-based control system for manipulating a 3-dimensional medical dataset include translating a body part, detecting the translation of the body part with a camera system. The method and system include translating a crop plane in the 3-dimensional medical dataset based on the translating the body part. The method and system include cropping the 3-dimensional medical dataset at the location of the crop plane after translating the crop plane and displaying the cropped 3-dimensional medical dataset using volume rendering.
