    • Membrane Mapping: Combining Mesoscopic and Molecular Cell Visualization 

      Waltemate, Thomas; Sommer, Björn; Botsch, Mario (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Three-dimensional cell visualization is an important topic in today's cytology-affiliated community. Cell illustrations and animations are used for scientific as well as for educational purposes. Unfortunately, there exist ...

    • Misalignment Correction in Open Cone-Beam CT 

      Wieckowski, Adam; Stopp, Fabian; Käseberg, Marc; Keeve, Erwin (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an established standard for both, medical and industrial volumetric imaging. To compute a 3D volume, multiple 2D x-ray projection images of an object of interest are acquired from ...

    • Personalized X-ray Reconstruction of the Proximal Femur via a New Control Point-based 2D-3D Registration and Residual Complexity Minimization 

      Yu, Weimin; Zheng, Guoyan (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      In this paper we present a new control point-based 2D-3D registration approach for a deformable registration of a 3D volumetric template to a limited number of 2D calibrated C-arm images and show its application to a ...

    • Real-Time Dense Nucleus Selection from Confocal Data 

      Wan, Yong; Otsuna, Hideo; Kwan, K. M.; Hansen, Charles (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Selecting structures from volume data using direct over-the-visualization interactions, such as a paint brush, is perhaps the most intuitive method in a variety of application scenarios. Unfortunately, it seems difficult ...

    • RegistrationShop: An Interactive 3D Medical Volume Registration System 

      Smit, Noeska N.; Haneveld, Berend Klein; Staring, Marius; Eisemann, Elmar; Botha, Charl P.; Vilanova, Anna (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      In medical imaging, registration is used to combine images containing information from different modalities or to track treatment effects over time in individual patients. Most registration software packages do not provide ...

    • Robust Cardiac Function Assessment in 4D PC-MRI Data 

      Köhler, Benjamin; Preim, Uta; Gutberlet, Matthias; Fischbach, Katharina; Preim, Bernhard (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Four-dimensional phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D PC-MRI) is a relatively young image modality that allows the non-invasive acquisition of time-resolved, three-dimensional blood flow information. Stroke volumes ...

    • Survey of Labeling Techniques in Medical Visualizations 

      Oeltze-Jafra, Steffen; Preim, Bernhard (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Annotations of relevant structures and regions are crucial in diagnostics, treatment planning, medical team meetings as well as in medical education. They serve to focus discussions, present results of collaborative decision ...

    • A Survey on Visualizing Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Data 

      Nunes, Miguel; Laruelo, Andrea; Ken, SoleaKhena; Laprie, Anne; Bühler, Katja (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Data from Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Imaging (MRSI) contains signals about biomarkers concentrations, which are used to achieve new knowledge about biochemical processes. These support doctors in identifying and treat ...

    • Towards Clinical Deployment of Automated Anatomical Regions-Of-Interest 

      Lindholm, Stefan; Forsberg, Daniel; Ynnerman, Anders; Knutsson, Hans; Andersson, Mats; Lundström, Claes (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      The purpose of this work is to investigate, and improve, the feasibility of advanced Region Of Interest (ROI) selection schemes in clinical volume rendering. In particular, this work implements and evaluates an Automated ...

    • Uncertainty-aware Ensemble of Classifiers for Segmenting Brain MRI Data 

      Al-Taie, Ahmed; Hahn, Horst K.; Linsen, Lars (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Estimating and visualizing uncertainty in medical image segmentation has become an active research area due to the necessity of making medical experts aware of possibly wrong segmentation decisions. Still, to our knowledge ...

    • Visibility-Driven Processing of Streaming Volume Data 

      Solteszova, Veronika; Birkeland, Asmund; Viola, Ivan; Bruckner, Stefan (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      In real-time volume data acquisition, such as 4D ultrasound, the raw data is challenging to visualize directly without additional processing. Noise removal and feature detection are common operations, but many methods are ...

    • Visual and Quantitative Analysis of Higher Order Arborization Overlaps for Neural Circuit Research 

      Swoboda, Nicolas; Moosburner, Judith; Bruckner, Stefan; Yu, Jai Y.; Dickson, Barry J.; Bühler, Katja (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Neuroscientists investigate neural circuits in the brain of the common fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster to discover how complex behavior is generated. Hypothesis building on potential connections between individual neurons ...

    • Visualizing Movements of Protein Tunnels in Molecular Dynamics Simulations 

      Kozlíková, Barbora; Jurcík, Adam; By ka, Jan; Strnad, Ondrej; Sochor, Jirí (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      Analysis and visualization of molecules and their structural features help biochemists and biologists to better understand protein behavior. Studying these structures in molecular dynamics simulations enhances this ...
