The use of 3D medical model data reconstructed from CT/MRI images is not realistic in doctors’ personal computers because the file size is too large. 3D model data in XVL format, which is very lightweight and highly precise, can be easily used on Web browsers and mobile devices. The data can not only be displayed, but also processed, such as adding 3D annotations and animations. It is also possible to embed the data into MS PowerPoint slides and MS Excel files. We propose new applications of 3D medical model data by using XVL.
