Abstract
We present here an approach to convert the geometrical information produced by a physical simulation
of soft-organ motion into a 3D+time CT scan. The paper describes how we calculate matter density
at mesh points and how we produce dynamic 3D CT scan using the convolution parameters of medical
scanners. The aim of this work is to provide physicians with standard images useful to appreciate organ
motions and to incorporate them into a treatment planning platform.
