       So I got the raw 3d MRI source files from the hospital. Then I got the software needed to view the MRI in 3d. It let me rotate, slice, and even colorize the images. So **I** generated these images from the raw MRI. It shows my kidney, heart, and skeleton from 4 different angles fully colorized. How cool is that!I also included some of just the heart and kidneys on its own from the same scan.

       @freemo Sir, you appear to have a skeleton inside you. It's terminal. You have, at best, to live until 100 years old before the skeleton kills you.

       @freemo That is incredibly awesome. Like colorizing old black and white films and now MRI.. Very cool! I wonder is all of our kidneys are not evenly position like that..LOL??

       @MiaDees I am nt sure how much of it is due to how i was laying. But id think its natural for organs to shift position to some degree.

       @freemo I've had a couple CT scans done recently - I wonder if they'd give me the data here in Canada, too.  Neat!

       @kithop You'd have trouble doing a volumetric render on ct scans. They dont give you the resolution you really need.Hell you cant even get soft tissue with an MRI unless you use contrast.

       @y6nH I havent tried, but im sure there must be a way. There data is surely there to make it possible. The question isnt if it is possible the question is just how much hacking you'd have to do in order to make it happen.

       @freemo Yes, I do suppose that is true. I just can't get over how awesome those MRI images were. Like looking directly at the peritoneal cavity contents but without all the blood and fluids in the way. Thanks again for sharing.🤗

       @freemo now we could say that we know you deeply 😂Very cool view of your inner body. Technology is starting to be similar to Star Trek's spaceship infirmary. I supouse that this can not be done in high resolution real time scannining, but it would be very cool. I wish you to be all right, healty!

       @freemoI had an MRI from my head as part of an experiment about 20 years ago, and at the time I used 'mricron' to render it. (See my avatar.) What software did you use here?

       @freemo Hello Sir, I am sorry to correct you but the 3D volume here is from a CT scan. Maybe you attached pics from the previous diagnostic examination, a CT from 2009, they give you also quite some xray dose ;)

       @haimoptysis I am far from an expert in this matter to disagree with you. I presume you know...But as memory serves I have never had a CT in my life, I know what the machine looks like, and I know what an MRI looks like and they were quite explicit about the fact that I was going into an MRI.Is it possible a CT looked identical to a MRI (fulliy encloised chamber and all that)

       @freemo the image says it is from Feb 25, 2009 Methodist hospital (USA, I guess). Your name is there, so this is you, it is a CT with contract, and you can see the voltage and ampere utilized 120kV/351mA. You rendered the CT scan using Osirix.

       @haimoptysis Hmmm that is very interesting... obviously i dont know enough to disagree, so i got something wrong somewhere along the way. I do appreciate you clarifying... Either i got a CT and dont remember.. or I got a CT and it looked like an MRI annd I was mistaken.

       @freemo indeed my intention was simply to help and point you in the right direction. Maybe you simply opened the wrong DICOM folder. Additionally you mentioned MR as far superior in resolution (spatial), actually it is the other way around, CT is the champ for spatial resolution at high acquisition speed, while MR excels is in contract resolution.

       @freemo in essence as you can easily understand "spatial resolution" as ability to differentiate two separate points, "contrast resolution" is the ability to differentiate two different tissue density.

       @freemo, the images are from 2018 though, so I wonder if few minutes more will make a difference. :D

       @tatzelbrumm You do not, though you arent the first person who noticed it... I was just sitting in the MRI machine weird I think.

       @freemo So nothing that BCT couldn't fix to improve your posture?https://youtu.be/7rqcVqj-NIM

       @tatzelbrumm Im not sure its anything that needs fixing. Remember you lay down in an MRI not sit up so its not a posture thing in the usual sense.

       @freemo they gave me 20 images in a format that required special software I forgot about and I turned them into an animation.

       @freemo @kithop On the contrary! Volumetric rendering is normally done with CT imaging, not MRI (and I suspect, yours is a CT as well). MRI has good resolution in the scanning plane, but needs to aquire each plane separately, so has not enough data in the z direction. Since CT is aquired as a high res spiral, you have all the voxels you need; the CT images you would get to see are already reconstructions from the original volumetric data. And soft tissue is no problem either, you clearly see liver, kidneys, spleen, pancreas, adrenal glands etc ona native CT image. The MRI on contrast does not show bones that well (depending on the sequence used, they do show the fatty bone marrow). And it is not that usual to do a full imaging of chest and abdomen using MRI (you would need different positions in the device and at least two extra coils, not talking about the long image aquiring time).

       @digastricus You very well could be right, im far from an expert (or even a novice) when it comes to imaging.I am fairly certain this was an MRI with contrast though. It was a long time ago but I do remember the doctor saying as much. That is, unless the doctor was mistaken or misspoke. It certainly looked like any other MRI machine I was in.@kithop

       @freemo @kithop I'm not a radiologist or physicist, so not an expert either. But due to being a doctor in internal medicine a see these images every day. The difference is easy to spot: CT is relatively quiet and has a spinning part. MRI makes funny noises and has a rather small tunnel you have to lay in. Normally, you'd get an extra coil on the body part being scanned.

       @digastricus So how you describe the two devices, that is what I thought they were... and while I know nothing about nothing this definately sounds like it is the MRI like I thought it was... small tube, super tight and a little intimidating even... no metal allowed near it, all that jazzamaroo :) and I distinctly remember this being with contrast.@kithop

       @freemo @kithop This sounds like an MRI indeed! A contrast agent can be used with both, CT and MRI. You can also look at the original images: With CT (which is x-ray), the bones appear white (as are calcifications, the contrast agent and metal). With MRI, it depends on the sequence used. T2: more water content ~ more white. T1: more fat ~ more white, roughly. But there are many more.
