Ontology-Based Visualization of Hierarchical Neuroanatomical Structures
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
This work presents a method for generating intuitive visualizations for high-level user queries to an hierarchical surface-based neuroanatomical atlas. We combine a spreading activation approach for computing focus and ...
Illustrated Ultrasound for Multimodal Data Interpretation of Liver Examinations
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Traditional visualization of real-time 2D ultrasound data is difficult to interpret, even for experienced medical personnel. To make the interpretation during the education phase easier, we enhance the visualization during ...
An Integrated Platform for Dynamic Cardiac Simulation and Image Processing: Application to Personalised Tetralogy of Fallot Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Processing and visualisation of dynamic data is still a common challenge in medical imaging, especially as for many applications there is an increasing amount of clinical data as well as generated data, such as in cardiac ...
Reconstruction of Blood Vessels from Neck CT Datasets using Stable 3D Mass-Spring Models
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Preoperative neck dissection planning benefits from a smooth, organic visualization of the main blood vessels of the neck, in particular the carotid artery and jugular vein. While most reconstruction techniques for vasculature ...
Computational Steering for Patient-Specific Implant Planning in Orthopedics
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Fast and reliable methods for predicting and monitoring in-vivo bone strength are of great importance for hip joint replacement. To avoid adaptive remodeling with cortical thinning and increased porosity of the bone due ...
Computation and Visualization of Asynchronous Behavior of the Heart
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Nowadays, computer-aided diagnosis is widely used in the analysis of cardiac image data. Especially, for the investigation of the dynamic behavior of the heart, automated analysis tools for 4D data sets have been developed. ...
Generation of a Mean Motion Model of the Lung Using 4D-CT Image Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Modeling of respiratory motion gains in importance within the field of radiation therapy of lung cancer patients. Current modeling approaches are usually confined to intra-patient registration of 3D image data representing ...
Glyph-Based Visualization of Myocardial Perfusion Data and Enhancement with Contractility and Viability Information
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Perfusion data characterize the regional blood flow in human tissue. In the diagnosis of the Coronary Heart Disease, they are acquired to detect hypoperfused regions of the myocardium (heart muscle) at an early stage or ...
Focus + Context Rendering of Structured Biomedical Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Biomedical data can be classified according to different taxonomies. Understanding the relationships between different data categories is essential for an in-depth knowledge of the data. We present a volume rendering system ...
CT Late Enhancement Segmentation for the Combined Analysis of Coronary Arteries and Myocardial Viability
(The Eurographics Association, 2008)
Non-invasive imaging techniques become more and more important as diagnostic tools for the assessment of coronary heart disease (CHD). While CT is widely applied for the inspection of the coronary arteries, the state of ...
