ABSTRACT:
Certain exemplary embodiments can comprise a method that can comprise automatically causing a representation of body tissue to be rendered. The representation of the body tissue can comprise a plurality of voxels located in an interior region of the body tissue. Each of the plurality of voxels can have a negative value of an energy change function.
