During the quick advancements of medical image visualization and augmented virtual reality applications improvements in the performances of Volume Rendering Algorithms need significant attention. Real-time visualization of 3D image data set is one of the key tasks of Augmented Reality Systems required by many medical imaging applications. Over past five years the development of the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) has proved beneficial when it comes to Real Time Volume Rendering. We propose a GPU based volume rendering system for medical images. Our toolkit independent system is able to read DICOM images, implementing better integration technics that increase frame rate for volume rendering with the same quality of output images.
