a rectangular cell/volume in space, a cuberille is a cube in space
a three-dimensional object, whereas a pixel is the two-dimensional representation on a screen
a unit of graphic information that defines a point in three-dimensional space
a volume cell, representing a value in three dimensional space
A voxel is a three dimensional picture element, the smallest piece of a 3D scan. A medical scan of a head or a heart might include many millions of these tiny coloured dots.
A graphical unit of information in a cross section image that represents a volume of tissue.
Building block of virtual reality; 3D pixel.
VOlume piXEL. The smallest box-shaped part of a 3D image. A volume is sliced into cross sections and each slice is composed of pixels. The pixels within each slice is a voxel. The actual volume is based on the interpixel distance squared times the interslice distance. Each voxel has information about its 3D position and volume. Each voxel also has other information, such as opacity. Voxels are used in 3-D X-Rays, CAT (Computed Axial Tomography) Scans, MRIs (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and 3D computer games.
A cubic volume pixel for quantizing 3D space.
Word created from two words (vector and pixel) to describe the 3-D space of a pixel based image. Pixel based files are commonly used with scanning-laser confocal microscopes. Multiple slices of a sample are collect at different Z-planes and then reconstructed to create a projection image of the sample.
The three dimensional equivalent of a pixel. A pixel is a "picture element," and a voxel is a "volume element." A voxel may also be defined as the minimum volume that a rapid prototyping system can fabricate.
volume pixel is the smallest distinguishable part of a 3D image.
An abbreviation for "volume element"; a three dimensional rectangular section of the subject being imaged, the signal from which contributes to the intensity of the image.
As pixel refers to a picture element in a 2D image, so voxel is the term used for the same concept in a 3D image and comes from volume element.
A voxel (short for volume pixel) is basically the 3D counterpart of a two dimensional pixel. Where you can represent a pixel as a square, a voxel would be a cube. Voxels can be used to build 3D worlds, in a raster format (versus polygonal format which is vector.) [ edit
Elementary volume element (expressed in units of mm3 ) within the scanned slice of the object, with which CT numbers are associated.
(n) The minimum 3-D unit in a volume rendering; equivalent to the pixel in a 2-D rendering.
(volume element) (n.) A 3-D element that describes the data in a volumetric structure. See also volume rendering.
A voxel (a portmanteau of the words volumetric and pixel) is a volume element, representing a value on a regular grid in three dimensional space. This is analogous to a pixel, which represents 2D image data. Voxels are frequently used in the visualisation and analysis of medical and scientific data.
