Comparison of tracing performance among the three vectorization methods. The CT images were processed by employing RSAvis3D and vectorized by applying RSAtrace3D. (a) 3D rendering of s roots of 26-DAS KP in an X-ray CT image. The X-ray CT image (a) was merged with the vectorized polylines by (b) “Straight,” (c) “Spline,” and (d) “COG tracking.” The vectorized polylines are colored in yellow. The vectorized polylines (e), (f), and (g) were isolated from those of (b), (c), and (d), respectively. The enlarged version of the interior, circled by the blue square, in (a), (e), (f), and (g) are shown in (h), (i), (j), and (k), respectively. The rectangle indicates (width) 180 mm × (depth) 180 mm × (height) 258 mm
