Abstract in different language:	Visualization of large medical data sets requires advanced techniques in image processing and data reduction. Compound data sets, which consist of several types of data, necessitate special treatment for each component. A data set which consists of both volumetric data and geometric data is called a “hybrid data set”. The goal of our new approach is the development of an interactive rendering pipeline with special timing predicates, which accepts medical data sets derived from CT or MRI scanners as well as geometric data from CAD systems, and, after pre-processing and data reduction, conjoins them in a common representation. Interactive behavior is an important feature of the system, because it enables the user to manipulate and adjust the visualization straight on demand.
