Open Inventor Medical Utility Library

  - The Medical Utility Library
    A collection of Open Inventor nodes and classes specifically for medical
    applications. In addition to the pre-built library, source code is provided
    so applications can customize the behavior for their exact needs. Classes
    in the medical library include:
    
      - MedicalHelper :
        Static helper methods for optimizing volume loading, data range, view
        orientation and more.
      - TextBox and DicomInfo :
        Display annotation text boxes on screen for patient/study/series info,
        dynamic info and more.
      - SliceScaleBar and SliceOrientationMarkers :
        Display the physical scale of an image and the image orientation.
      - Gnomon :
        Dynamically displays the orientation of a volume in 3D.
      - Magnifier and Ruler :
        Zoom in on an image and display a linear measurement tool.
      - PlaneBoxIntersection and PlaneGeometryIntersection :
        Display the intersection of a plane (e.g. oblique slice) with a box.
        Display the intersection of a plane with surface geometry and compute
        the capping polygon.
      - VolumeMarchingCubes :
        Compute surface geometry for an isovalue in a volume (which can then be
        exported, for example as STL).
      - SceneView and ViewManager :
        Work with the Viewer Components classes, for example SceneExaminer, to
        manage multiple views rendered into multiple viewports.  See the
        MedicalMPRViewer demo.  Also useful to create lightbox views and so on.

  - Medical Example Programs
    A collection of more than 50 programs that illustrate many useful techniques.
    New examples have been added in this release for DICOM image viewing, image
    filtering, image segmentation, surface extraction (isosurface) and geometry
    clipping.
