Hi Randy.
You're definitely right. Also it is interesting to talk about 3D and volume rendering. As to me, I do not consider too much the usage of SVG in medical applications yet. This is due to no posibility to overcome conversion in memory 2D-raster data to a MIME-text. I mean, what if we have image in SVG and would like to apply custom filter (not one from SVG), color levelling by mouse or do some other raster manipulation (always quite fast on almost any client), but in SVG we need to convert every time the data to MIME-text and besides extra data copiing. In any case it is quite CPU-expensive even at reasonable resolution. That leads to quite annoying slow reaction, i.e. lack of interactivity. The possible overcome could be a custom rendering extensions... Thank you very much.
