Simplified generation of biomedical 3D surface model data for embedding into 3D portable document format (PDF) files for publication and education.

The usefulness of the 3D Portable Document Format (PDF) for clinical, educational, and research purposes has recently been shown. However, the lack of a simple tool for converting biomedical data into the model data in the necessary Universal 3D (U3D) file format is a drawback for the broad acceptan...
