Abstract
A part of the user interface of a volume visualization system is described. It provides the opportunity of the real-time interactive definition of viewing parameters for volume rendering. Viewing parameters in this case are the view point and cut planes through the volume data set. It uses an approach for the fast rendering of volume data which traditional computer graphics does not know and which is as fast as wire frame representations.
