Abstract
A method of extracting a mesh representation of a surface from a volumetric representation of at least a portion of an object is provided. A surface is derived from the volumetric representation. A seed point on the surface is then selected, and a neighborhood of the seed point is grown over at least a portion of the surface. These selection and growing steps are iteratively repeated until the entire surface is substantially completely covered. Seed points are then selectively connected to form polygons which comprise the mesh representation.
