intensity searchingSYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ]
#include
mlib_status mlib_VolumeFindMax_U8(mlib_u8 *max,
const mlib_rays *rays);
mlib_status mlib_VolumeFindMax_S16(mlib_s16 *max,
const mlib_rays *rays);
DESCRIPTION
Each function performs maximum intensity searching. It uses the following equation:max[i] = MAX{ rays->results[j][i]
j = 0, 1, ..., rays->nsteps[i] }
where i = 0, 1, ..., rays->nrays - 1.
PARAMETERS
The function takes the following arguments:max Pointer to an array of rays->nrays maximum values of
the samples in each ray.rays Pointer to an mlib_rays structure. The data rays-
>results are organized with ray number (rather than ray step) varying fastest. Ray number and ray step are the output of the ray casting functions. The data might have values beyond the maximum step on aray. For example, rays->results[rays->nsteps[i]][i]
on ray i might not equal 0.RETURN VALUES
The function returns MLIB_SUCCESS if successful. Otherwise
it returns MLIB_FAILURE.
