Volume reconstruction is one of the key problems in 3D image rendering and analysis. Inter slice interpolation methods have been widely discussed in the literature and object-based algorithms have been shown to well behave. In this paper, we present a non-rigid registration based strategy to improve the volume reconstruction. A level set evolution technique is proposed to yield the deformation between adjacent slices. A modified bilinear interpolation method is then designed to generate propagating image. A multi-resolution scheme is applied to decrease the computation time and support large deformation. The resulting images show good results on regions enclosing different anatomic structures.
