    • Motion-moderated Transfer Function for Volume Rendering 4D CMR Data 

      Walton, Simon; Chen, Min; Holloway, Cameron (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) produces time-varying volume data by combining conventional MRI techniques with ECG gating. It allows physicians to inspect the dynamics of a beating heart, such as myocardium motion ...

    • Parametric-based Reconstruction Of 3D Mesh Models; Towards the Generation of a Parametric Human Foot Biomodel 

      Agathos, Alexander; Azariadis, Philip (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      In this work a new reconstruction technique is presented based on Parametric-Based Deformation. The new method uses a template 3D mesh model which is deformed according to user-defined semantic parameters in order to derive ...

    • QuantiScale: A Study in Redesigning Interactions for Multi-Touch 

      Ritter, Felix; Issawi, Jumana Al; Benten, Simon (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We investigate the performance of QuantiScale, a new multi-touch interaction technique for the quantification of distances in medical images and discuss the benefits and prospects of redesigning interactions with multi-touch ...

    • Schematic Electrode Map for Navigation in Neuro Data Sets 

      Berge, Christian Schulte zu; Weiss, Jakob; Navab, Nassir (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Neuro resection surgery is one of the last resorts when treating epilepsy patients where conservative treatment shows no effect on seizure reduction. However, due to the severity of the surgery, the resection planning has ...

    • Simulated Motion Artefact in Computed Tomography 

      Vidal, Franck; Villard, Pierre-Frédéric (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We propose a simulation framework to simulate the computed tomography acquisition process. It includes five components: anatomic data, respiration modelling, automatic parametrisation, X-ray simulation, and tomography ...

    • Simulation-based Ultrasound Training Supported by Annotations, Haptics and Linked Multimodal Views 

      Law, Yuen C.; Knott, Thomas; Pick, Sebastian; Weyers, Benjamin; Kuhlen, Torsten W. (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      When learning ultrasound (US) imaging, trainees must learn how to recognize structures, interpret textures and shapes, and simultaneously register the 2D ultrasound images to their 3D anatomical mental models. Alleviating ...

    • A Statistical Method for Surface Detection 

      Smith, Samuel; Williams, Ian (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      This work presents a new method for 3D surface detection using a statistical dual-region filter. The method improves over traditional 3D surface detection techniques by resolving interfaces between different stochastic ...

    • A Survey of Cardiac 4D PC-MRI Data Processing 

      Köhler, Benjamin; Born, Silvia; Pelt, Roy F. P. van; Preim, Uta; Preim, Bernhard (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Cardiac 4D PC-MRI acquisitions gained increasing clinical interest in recent years. They allow to non-invasively obtain extensive information about patient-specific hemodynamics and thus have a great potential to improve ...

    • SWiFT Seeing the Wood From the Trees: helping people make sense of their health data 

      Brown, Dan; Duce, David; Franklin, Rachel; Harrison, Rachel; Martin, Clare; Waite, Marion (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      The aim of the SWIFT project is to determine which visualisations of blood glucose-related data on mobile devices are most usable by people with insulin-dependent diabetes, to improve self-management.

    • A Two-Level Cascade Classification Algorithm for Real-Time Bifurcation Detection in CTA Images of Blood Vessels 

      Novikov, Alexey A.; Wimmer, Maria; Major, David; Bühler, Katja (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We introduce a cascade classification algorithm for bifurcation detection in Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) scans of blood vessels. The proposed algorithm analyzes the vessel surrounding by a trained classifier ...

    • Uncertainty Estimation and Visualization for Multi-modal Image Segmentation 

      Al-Taie, Ahmed; Hahn, Horst K.; Linsen, Lars (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Multi-modal imaging allows for the integration of complementary information from multiple medical imaging modalities for an improved analysis. The multiple information channels may lead to a reduction of the uncertainty ...

    • Visual Analysis of Medical Image Segmentation Feature Space for Interactive Supervised Classification 

      Molchanov, Vladimir; Chitiboi, Teodora; Linsen, Lars (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Classification of image regions is a crucial step in many image segmentation algorithms. Assigning a segment to a certain class can be based on various numerical characteristics such as size, intensity statistics, or shape, ...

    • Visualisation of PET data in the Fly Algorithm 

      Abbood, Zainab Ali; Rocchisani, Jean-Marie; Vidal, Franck (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We use the Fly algorithm, an artificial evolution strategy, to reconstruct positron emission tomography (PET) images. The algorithm iteratively optimises the position of 3D points. It eventually produces a point cloud, ...
