  abstract =   "We introduce anovel approachto specify and edit volumes of
               interest (VOI for short) interactively. Enhancing the
               capabilities of standard systems we provide tools to edit
               the VOI by defining a not necessarily convex polyhedral
               bounding object.We suggest to use low-level editing
               interactions for moving, inserting and deleting vertices,
               edges and faces of the polyhedron. The low-level operations
               can be used as building blocks for more complex higher order
               operations fitting the application demands. Flexible
               initialization allows the user to select within a few clicks
               convex VOI that in the classical clipping plane model need
               the specification of a large number of cutting planes. In
               our model it is similarly simple to select non-convex VOI.
               Boolean combinations allowto select non-connected VOI of
               arbitrary complexity. The polyhedral VOI selection technique
               enables the user to define VOI with complex boundary
               structure interactively, in an easy to comprehend and
               predictable manner.",
