Parametric-based Reconstruction Of 3D Mesh Models; Towards the Generation of a Parametric Human Foot Biomodel
(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 ... -
A Haptics-enabled Simulator for Transperineal Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)We present the development of a transperineal prostate biopsy, with high fidelity haptic feedback. We describe our current prototype, which is using physical props and a Geomagic Touch. In addition, we discuss a method for ... -
Visualisation of PET data in the Fly Algorithm
(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, ... -
Simulated Motion Artefact in Computed Tomography
(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 ... -
A Statistical Method for Surface Detection
(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 ... -
Automatic Real-time Annotation of Important Landmarks in Ultrasound-Guided Femoral Nerve Blocks
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)The main focus of the preliminary work presented here is the automatic real-time annotation (detection and tracking) of the important structures seen in an ultrasound image taken from a femoral nerve block, i.e. the femoral ... -
Schematic Electrode Map for Navigation in Neuro Data Sets
(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 ... -
Challenges and Technologies for Low Cost Wheelchair Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)The use of electric wheelchairs is inherently risky, as collisions due to lack of control can result in injury for the user, but also potentially for other pedestrians. Introducing new users to powered chairs via virtual ... -
SWiFT Seeing the Wood From the Trees: helping people make sense of their health data
(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. -
QuantiScale: A Study in Redesigning Interactions for Multi-Touch
(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 ... -
Simulation-based Ultrasound Training Supported by Annotations, Haptics and Linked Multimodal Views
(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 ... -
Haptics-based Modelling of Pigmented Skin Lesions
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Dermatology is under-represented in medical undergraduate education with newly graduated doctors not being able to identify common and important skin conditions. In order to become competent in diagnosing skin lesions, it ... -
Exploration of 3D Medical Image Data for Interventional Radiology using Myoelectric Gesture Control
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Human-computer interaction with medical images in a sterile environment is a challenging task. It is often delegated to an assistant or performed directly by the physician with an interaction device wrapped in a sterile ... -
A Survey of Cardiac 4D PC-MRI Data Processing
(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 ... -
Histology-Based Evaluation of Optical Coherence Tomographic Characteristics of the Cerebral Artery Wall via Virtual Inflating
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)With an increased rate of cerebrovascular diseases, the need for an advanced vessel wall analysis increases as well. In this work, we provide new information of cerebral artery walls extracted with optical coherence ... -
Automated Slice-Based Artery Identification in Various Field-of-View CTA Scans
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Automated identification of main arteries in Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) scans plays a key role in the initialization of vessel tracking algorithms. Automated vessel tracking tools support physicians in vessel ... -
Fiber Stipples for Crossing Tracts in Probabilistic Tractography
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)Given diffusion weighted magnetic resonance (dMRI) data, tractography methods may reconstruct estimations of neural connections of the human brain, so called tractograms. Probabilistic tractography algorithms generate a ... -
A Two-Level Cascade Classification Algorithm for Real-Time Bifurcation Detection in CTA Images of Blood Vessels
(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 ... -
Illustrative Multi-volume Rendering for PET/CT Scans
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)In this paper we present illustrative visualization techniques for PET/CT datasets. PET/CT scanners acquire both PET and CT image data in order to combine functional metabolic information with structural anatomical ... -
Interactive Position-dependent Customization of Transfer Function Classification Parameters in Volume Rendering
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)In direct volume rendering (DVR) and related techniques a basic operation is the classification of data values by mapping (mostly scalar) intensities to color values using a transfer function. However, in some cases this ...
