Method and apparatus for progressive loading of medical, multi-dimensional images in a medical application

A method for progressive loading of medical, multi-dimensional images of a volume to be fully charged, as a result, in a medical application, comprising the steps of: a) loading a first image set with n = k b) starting with a value x = 1, loading a further image set with n c) determining a camera distance and a voxel size as a parameter to a rendering of the volume corresponding to a number of already loaded images and the n d) have been fully charged to the images of the volume and / or to the flow of the steps terminated by a user, increasing the value x by one (x = x + 1) and repeating steps b) and c).
