Human Kidneys

Data Sculpt

The kidney model was firstly segmented from CT scans using 3D Slicer, then it was cleaned up and painted in Zbrush. A static image and a video turnaround were created in C4D.

Work Process

1. Reconstruct 3D information from CT scans

To have a precise contour of a pair of kidneys for my 3D model, I used a set of CT data and extracted the kidneys from each slice of scan in 3D Slicer.
