Praescia: Turn a Scan into a Map

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A research prototype lets visitors explore a CT scan as image slices and an interactive 3D model in the browser.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-15 issue.

Field notes

The browser demonstration loads TotalSegmentator CT case s0004 and guides the visitor from slice inspection to a revealed 3D view of identified structures. It uses NiiVue and records interaction history locally, with an optional log export. The site distinguishes this demonstration from a native iPad prototype that processes scans on-device, and explains that the underlying geometry layer preserves the relationship between voxel indices and physical coordinates.
