Some days ago I read on Science News Magazine a story about a high definition MRI made on a human brain. In the video presented on the story was possible see the slices of MRI and I thought that it could be a good opportunity to test some tools on Linux 3DCS and OrtogOnBlender.
So this was the step-by-step:
- Download the video with Video DownloadHelper;
- Convert video into an image sequence with FFMPEG;
- Force a conversion to grayscale with ImageMagick;
- Select only a half of more than 1200 slices, because it can crash the computer;
- Convert grayscale sequence into a DICOM sequence (inside OrtogOnBlender);
- Reconstruct the voxel data from DICOM;
- Reconstruct 3D mesh from DICOM.
Step-by-step video:
I hope you enjoy. A big hug!

This is super awesome.. but was soooooo quick..
I couldn't believe blender is an MRI reader too
Simply awesome
Thank you! o/
Congrats, Cícero.
Great work!
How much time the software spent to convert from voxel to mesh?
that's cool...!
thank you for sharing.
Thank you!
Simply, Just WOW! Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Way to go! Ver 2.8 was used.
Awesome, you are superman. I hope Intel or AMD and Nvidia help donate their technology too or hardware give it to you.
Thank you! I bought a new computer some days ago: i9 9900k, nVidia GTX 2070, 64 GB RAM, 2 HD SSD, water cooler.
Awesome work! However, I've been trying to get this to work on Windows unsuccessfuly.. Would you have any tips to get this working properly?
Why not use the base dataset directly instead of converting from the video?
