Volume Graphics 2003

This book contains the papers presented at the Third International Workshop on Volume Graphics, which took place from July 7 - 8, 2003 in Tokyo, Japan. Each of the submitted papers was reviewed by four domain experts. The best 17 papers were accepted and appear in these proceedings. Thanks to the devoted assistance of the program committee members and additional reviewers, the accepted papers encompass all aspects of volume graphics and visualization: from modeling, representation, manipulation, rendering, to systems and applications; and constitute six plenary regular sessions, together with a keynote speech and a capstone address during the two full workshop days.
