5 Volume Render
Volume Rendering uses the concept of Opacity. For different density levels, each voxel
transmits a certain amount of light, which is reflected on the following voxel, and only the
residual light reaches the following layer. The resulting image is the total sum of the reflection
from each layer of tissue through which the light has passed. The effect of using Volume
Rendering on a dataset is that it makes highly opaque objects more visible and at the same time
it makes less opaque objects more transparent.

Illustration 13: Left = Structures presenting density value associated with high opacity reflect
light: they are visible. Right: = Structures presenting density value associated with low opacity
5.1 Up ramp VR adjustments
•
To decrease background noise, increase the value of the lower threshold.
•
To increase visualization of soft tissues structures, decrease the value of the lower
threshold.
•
Max opacity can be reduced: structures become more translucent.
Threshold Values constant: (50 to 800); Opacity values are changed.

How do I clear Ge Revolution collision sensor
To clear the collision sensor on a GE Revolution CT, remove any obstructions detected by the sensors located beneath the front and back of the table. Once the area is clear, you can continue positioning the table.
