Scientific Volume Visualization

Scientific Volume Visualization is a branch of visualization science that specifically employs volume rendering techniques to explore and communicate three-dimensional scalar fields derived from scientific simulations and measurements, distinguished from other visualization modalities by its focus on the direct visualization of volumetric data without explicit geometric extraction.
