ABSTRACT:
The invention refers to a method of producing a medical report comprising a dynamic image information based on a volumetric scan of one or more internal organs of a subject. According to the method two-dimensional images for simulating a three-dimensional view of the one or more internal organs based on the volumetric scan are calculated using a workstation. The resulting two-dimensional images are next projected on a surface of a geometrical object, which is then unfolded to a two-dimensional flat plane (U,L,F,R,B,D), and stored in a generated textual medical report for further analysis on a low-end computer. Advantageously the stored two-dimensional images are displayed dynamically within the medical report, either as a sequence of images or as a part of a virtual environment.
