A display device coordinate system is established. First volume data is obtained, and multiple first coordinates of multiple voxels of the first volume data in an absolute space coordinate system are defined. The multiple first coordinates of the multiple voxels of the first volume data are converted to the display device coordinate system to generate second volume data. Display data is generated according to the second volume data. An image is displayed according to the display data through the display device, and the image forms a 3D image with a 3D object image in human eyes, in which the 3D object image changes equally or proportionally in response to a change desired by a user through an input unit.
