Global Illumination
Innovate. Collaborate. Integrate.
Global Illumination Rendering (GIR) is a new revolutionary 3D/4D rendering technique to help provide a more photorealistic view of human anatomy, available within existing Vitrea Advanced Visualization workflows.
Users can stay at the forefront of their industry by using new cutting-edge real-time photorealistic rendering techniques delivered by Global Illumination, share findings more easily with both Multi-Disciplinary Teams and patients as well as seamlessly integrate photorealistic images into routine clinical workflow.

Pure Innovation
Explore anatomy in lifelike realism, in real time
Photorealistic
Global Illumination rendering uses complex lighting and shading techniques to provide photorealistic imaging.
Real time & interactive
Real-time image manipulation and editing enable quick segmentation and editing of anatomy without disrupting clinical workflow.
Greater detail
Improved detail enhances your understanding of image content, such as anatomy, spatial relationships, and lesion identification, compared to traditional volume rendering.
Smart Collaboration
Enhance communication across care teams and with your patients
Outstanding photorealistic imaging allows for effective sharing and education across MDTs (Multi-Disciplinary Teams) and departments in different facilities.
Global Illumination rendering is a tool that can be used in new clinical domains, such as forensic imaging. It also has the potential to aid in surgical planning, oncology, and complement the benefits of 3D printing*.
* The output 3D anatomical model is not for diagnostic use
Intelligent Integration
Seamlessly connect advanced visualization with your daily workflow
Global Illumination is integrated into existing workflows. Global illumination rendering works on standard hardware, allowing you to get the benefits of photorealistic 4D image rendering in your routine clinical workflow with no added time or effort.
