This paper presents a high-quality glass-less autostereoscopic display system that is integrated into image-guided surgery. The glass-less autostereoscopic image was created by employing a modification of Integral Videography (IV), which is an animated extension of Integral Photography. IV records and reproduces 3-D images using a micro convex lens array and plat display, which can display geometrically accurate 3-D autostereoscopic images and reproduce motion parallax without any need for special viewing devices. This paper reports the use of high-resolution IV display and high performance computing for producing medical 3-D image. We evaluate the feasibility of this display by using a set of medical image with segmentation and reproducing 3-D CT and MRI autostereoscopic image for surgical planning and intra-operative guidance. The main contribution of this paper is application and modification of medical 3-D display technique originally developed in high-resolution autostereoscopic display and high performance computing.
