Our method extends the well-known marching cubes algorithm used for computing polygonal isosurfaces. While in marching cubes each vertex of a cubic grid cell is binary classified as lying above or below an isosurface, in our approach an arbitrary number of vertex classes can be specified. Consequently the resulting surfaces consist of patches separating volumes of two different classes each. Similar to the marching cubes algorithm all grid cells are traversed and classified according to the number of different vertex classes involved and their arrangement. The solution for each configuration is computed based on a model that assigns probabilities to the vertices and interpolates them. We introduce an automatic method to find a triangulation which approximates the boundary surfaces - implicitly given by our model - in a topological correct way. Look-up tables guarantee a high performance of the algorithm. In medical applications our method can be used to extract surfaces from a 3D segmentation of tomographic images into multiple tissue types. The resulting surfaces are well suited for subsequent volumetric mesh generation, which is needed for simulation as well as visualization tasks. The proposed algorithm provides a robust and unique solution, avoiding ambiguities occuring in other methods. The method is of great significance in modeling and animation too, where it can be used for polygonalization of non-manifold implicit surfaces.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NadobnySullivanWustetal.1998, author = {Nadobny, Johanna and Sullivan, Dennis and Wust, Peter and Seebass, Martin and Deuflhard, Peter and Felix, Roland}, title = {A High Resolution Interpretation at Arbitrary Interfaces for the FDTD Method}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques}, volume = {46}, booktitle = {IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques}, number = {11}, pages = {1759 -- 1766}, year = {1998}, language = {en} } @article{NadobnySullivanWustetal.1998, author = {Nadobny, Jacek and Sullivan, Dennis and Wust, Peter and Seebaß, Martin and Deuflhard, Peter and Felix, Roland}, title = {A High-Resolution Interpolation at Arbitary Interfaces for the FDTD Method}, series = {IEEE Trans.

Within so-called regional hyperthermia the computational task is to tune a set of coupled radiofrequency antennas such that a carefully measured tumor is locally heated, but any outside hot spots are avoided. A mathematical model of the whole clinical system -- air, applicator with antennas, water bolus, individual patient body -- involves Maxwell's equations in inhomogeneous media and a parabolic bioheat transfer equation, which represents a simplified model of heat transfer in the human body (ignoring strong blood vessel heat transport). Both PDEs need to be computed fast and to medical reliability (!) on a workstation within a clinical environment. This requirement triggered a series of new algorithmic developments to be reported here, among which is an adaptive multilevel FEM for Maxwell's equations, which dominates the numerical simulation time. In total, however, the main bulk of computation time (see Table 3 in Section 4 below) still goes into segmentation -- a necessary preprocessing step in the construction a 3D virtual patient from the input of a stack of 2D computed tomograms (left out here).}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DeuflhardSeebass1999, author = {Deuflhard, Peter and Seebass, Martin}, title = {Adaptive Multilevel FEM as Decisive Tools in the Clinical Cancer Therapy Hyperthermia}, series = {Procs.

A nonlinear three--dimensional heat--transfer model based on temperature--dependent blood perfusion is applied to predict the temperature. Optimal heating is obtained by minimizing an integral object function which measures the distance between desired and model predicted temperatures. Sequential minima are calculated from successively improved constant--rate perfusion models employing a damped Newton method in an inner iteration. Numerical results for a Sigma 60 applicator are presented.
