ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for displaying an enhanced image based on an image plane of data. A volume data set is acquired, and a plane is defined on an image based on the volume data set. The plane may be a C-plane. Data within the volume data set which is defined by the plane is processed with an image enhancing technique and the resultant enhanced image is displayed.
