Illustrative PET/CT Visualisation of SIRT-Treated Lung Metastases
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
We present an illustrative rendering pipeline which combines anatomical information from CT scans with functional information from PET scans. To treat lung metastases with Selective Internal Radiation Therapies (SIRTs), ...
Visualization-Guided Evaluation of Simulated Minimally Invasive Cancer Treatment
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
We present a visualization application supporting interventional radiologists during analysis of simulated minimally invasive cancer treatment. The current clinical practice employs only rudimentary, manual measurement ...
Graxels: Information Rich Primitives for the Visualization of Time-Dependent Spatial Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Time-dependent volumetric data has important applications in areas as diverse as medicine, climatology, and engineering. However, the simultaneous quantitative assessment of spatial and temporal features is very challenging. ...
How to Evaluate Medical Visualizations on the Example of 3D Aneurysm Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
For the evaluation of medical visualizations, a ground truth is often missing. Therefore, the evaluation of medical visualizations is often restricted to qualitative comparisons w.r.t user preferences but neglects more ...
Monte-Carlo Ray-Tracing for Realistic Interactive Ultrasound Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Ray-based simulations have been shown to generate impressively realistic ultrasound images in interactive frame rates. Recent efforts used GPU-based surface ray-tracing to simulate complex ultrasound interactions such as ...
Illustrative Transitions in Molecular Visualization via Forward and Inverse Abstraction Transform
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
A challenging problem in biology is the incompleteness of acquired information when visualizing biological phenomena. Structural biology generates detailed models of viruses or bacteria at different development stages, ...
Aortic Dissection Maps: Comprehensive Visualization of Aortic Dissections for Risk Assessment
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Aortic dissection is a life threatening condition of the aorta, characterized by separation of its wall layers into a true and false lumen. A subset of patients require immediate surgical or endovascular repair. All survivors ...
A Framework for Fast Initial Exploration of PC-MRI Cardiac Flow
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Cardiac flow is still not fully understood, and is currently an active research topic. Using phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) blood flow can be measured. For the inspection of such flow, researchers often ...
Temporal Interpolation of 4D PC-MRI Blood-flow Measurements Using Bidirectional Physics-based Fluid Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) enables volumetric and time-varying measurements of blood-flow data. Such data have shown potential to improve diagnosis and risk assessment of various cardiovascular diseases. Hereby, a ...
Sline: Seamless Line Illustration for Interactive Biomedical Visualization
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
In medical visualization of surface information, problems often arise when visualizing several overlapping structures simultaneously. There is a trade-off between visualizing multiple structures in a detailed way and ...
