Title:

MEDICAL SIMULATION APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING 3−DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DISPLAY IN THE MEDICAL SIMULATION APPARATUS

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2003/037204

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

A medical simulation apparatus capable of performing simulation while correlating a 3−dimensional image with an actual model. By the movement of a mandibile dentition model (62), it is possible to obtain coordinates in the coordinate system defined by three reference marks MK1, MK2, MK3 for measurement object marks MP1, MP2, and MP3 on the surface of the mandibile dentition model (62). The coordinates obtained are changed into the coordinates of the coordinate system defined by the reference marks PK1, PK2, PK3 according to the relationship between the reference marks MK1, MK2, MK3 and the reference marks PK1, PK2, PK3. Then, it is possible to obtain the coordinate change before and after the movement of the mandibile dentition model (62) and an area specified in advance in the 3−dimensional image displayed on a display (5) is moved according to the coordinate change obtained.
