    • 2.5D Geometric Mapping of Aortic Blood Flow Data for Cohort Visualization 

      Behrendt, Benjamin; Pleuss-Engelhardt, David; Gutberlet, Matthias; Preim, Bernhard (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Four-dimensional phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D PC-MRI) allows for a non-invasive acquisition of timeresolved blood flow measurements, providing a valuable aid to clinicians and researchers seeking a better ...

    • AR-Assisted Craniotomy Planning for Tumour Resection 

      Wooning, Joost; Benmahdjoub, Mohamed; Walsum, Theo van; Marroquim, Ricardo (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Craniotomy is a procedure where neurosurgeons open the patient's skull to gain direct access to the brain. The craniotomy's position defines the access path from the skull surface to the tumour and, consequently, the healthy ...

    • Automatic Animations to Analyze Blood Flow Data 

      Apilla, Vikram; Behrendt, Benjamin; Lawonn, Kai; Preim, Bernhard; Meuschke, Monique (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      We present an approach for computing camera animations composed of optimal views to support the visual exploration of blood flow data using cerebral aneurysms as major example. Medical researchers are interested in hemodynamic ...

    • Automatic Cutting and Flattening of Carotid Artery Geometries 

      Eulzer, Pepe; Richter, Kevin; Meuschke, Monique; Hundertmark, Anna; Lawonn, Kai; , (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      We propose a novel method to cut and flatten vascular geometry that results in an intuitive mapping between the 3D and 2D domains. Our approach is fully automatic, and the sole input is the vessel geometry. We aim to ...

    • An Exploration of Practice and Preferences for the Visual Communication of Biomedical Processes 

      Garrison, Laura; Meuschke, Monique; Fairman, Jennifer; Smit, Noeska N.; Preim, Bernhard; Bruckner, Stefan (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      The visual communication of biomedical processes draws from diverse techniques in both visualization and biomedical illustration. However, matching these techniques to their intended audience often relies on practice-based ...

    • Interactive Multimodal Imaging Visualization for Multiple Sclerosis Lesion Analysis 

      Sugathan, Sherin; Bartsch, Hauke; Riemer, Frank; Grüner, Renate; Lawonn, Kai; Smit, Noeska N. (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a brain disease that is diagnosed and monitored extensively through MRI scans. One of the criteria is the appearance of so-called brain lesions. The lesions show up on MRI scans as regions with ...

    • Multiple Scale Visualization of Electronic Health Records to Support Finding Medical Narratives 

      Linden, Sanne van der; Wijk, Jarke J. van; Funk, Mathias (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Electronic Health Records (EHRs) contain rich medical information about patients, possibly hundreds of notes, lab results, images and other information. Doctors can easily be overwhelmed by this wealth of information. For ...

    • PerSleep: A Visual Analytics Approach for Performance Assessment of Sleep Staging Models 

      Garcia Caballero, Humberto S.; Corvò, Alberto; Meulen, Fokke van; Fonseca, Pedro; Overeem, Sebasitaan; Wijk, Jarke J. van; Westenberg, Michel A. (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Machine learning is becoming increasingly popular in the medical domain. In the near future, clinicians expect predictive models to support daily tasks such as diagnosis and prognostic analysis. For this reason, it is ...

    • Polar Space Based Shape Averaging for Star-shaped Biological Objects 

      Ruzaeva, Karina; Nöh, Katharina; Berkels, Benjamin (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      In this paper, we propose an averaging method for expert segmentation proposals of microbial organisms, resulting in a smooth, naturally looking segmentation ground truth. The approach exploits a geometrical property of ...

    • Projection Mapping for In-Situ Surgery Planning by the Example of DIEP Flap Breast Reconstruction 

      Martschinke, Jana; Klein, Vanessa; Kurth, Philipp; Engel, Klaus; Ludolph, Ingo; Hauck, Theresa; Horch, Raymund; Stamminger, Marc (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Nowadays, many surgical procedures require preoperative planning, mostly relying on data from 3D imaging techniques like computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. However, preoperative assessment of this data is ...

    • Reducing Model Uncertainty in Crossing Fiber Tractography 

      Gruen, Johannes; Voort, Gemma van der; Schultz, Thomas (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      Diffusion MRI (dMRI) tractography permits the non-invasive reconstruction of major white matter tracts, and is therefore widely used in neurosurgical planning and in neuroscience. However, it is affected by various sources ...

    • The Role of Depth Perception in XR from a Neuroscience Perspective: A Primer and Survey 

      Hushagen, Vetle; Tresselt, Gustav C.; Smit, Noeska N.; Specht, Karsten (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
