How it works
From an MRI scan to a model in your hand
Every model starts as a real, open MRI and ends as a lightweight 3D model you can spin on your phone. Here is the journey in plain terms.
- 1 Start with open MRI
We use Prostate158, a public, consented research dataset of prostate MRIs with expert outlines. No data from any hospital.
- 2 Trace the anatomy
Expert outlines mark the whole gland, the peripheral and transition zones, and any lesion.
- 3 Build the 3D shape
Those outlines become smooth 3D surfaces, then shrunk right down so a model loads in a second on a phone.
- 4 Colour-code the layers
Each part gets the same colour everywhere, so you always know what you are looking at.
- 5 Check it, honestly
We run automated checks and only call a model fully 'orientation-checked' once its left/right and up/down match the scan. Until then, we say so plainly.
