Human brain surface model comparisons

Human brain surface model comparisons

    In the process of making a reasonably accurate bronze cast of a human brain, I came up against the limitations of polygonal surface models. In particular it is difficult to generate a highly detailed and topologically correct polygonal mesh from high resolution (~1mm)  MRI volume data.

    This is just a visual comparison between renderings of brains, using both volume rendering and polygonal mesh surface rendering techniques.
