Chernyaev s Marching Cubes 33 is one of the first isosurface extraction algorithms intended to preserve the topology of the trilinear interpolant. In this work, we address three issues in the Marching Cubes 33 algorithm, two of which are related to its original description. In particular, we solve a problem with the core disambiguation procedure of Marching Cubes 33 that prevents the extraction of topologically correct isosurfaces for the ambiguous configuration 13.5 thus fixing the original formulation of the algorithm. The Marching Cubes algorithm is considered simple, robust and with low computational cost, characteristics that contributed to make it the most popular algorithm for isosurfaces extraction. However, regarding the quality of the resulting mesh, frequently it is possible to observe a large number of badly-shaped triangles (triangles with small angles) and even degenerate (triangles with zero area) ones. Seeking to unite a better triangulation quality of the resulting mesh to the topological consistency, we propose an extension of the triangulation table proposed by Chernyaev, so that the vertices of the grid become part of the triangulation generated, thus eliminating the possibility of generation of degenerate triangles. This new table is used to avoid the creation of badly-shaped triangles via small changes of the scalar field on the vertices of the grid.
