The VAIDAK medical imaging and model reconstruction toolkit manipulates medical image volume data and constructs accurate surface and solid models of skeletal and soft tissue structures.It takes CT (Computed tomography), MRl (magnetic resonance imaging), or laser surface imaging data as input and incoporates both heuristic and exact methods for contouring of image data, active thresholding, tiling and polygon reconstruction.It also incorporates a scanner to view image data and interactively pick threshold values, a browser feature to modify the contours, an editor for the boundary polygons of a reconstructed solid object and a render window to change lighting and display modes.
