Smart super views - A knowledge-assisted interface for medical visualization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to the ever growing volume of acquired data and information, users have to be constantly aware of the methods for their exploration and for interaction. Of these, not each might be applicable to the data at hand or might reveal the desired result. Owing to this, innovations may be used inappropriately and users may become skeptical. In this paper we propose a knowledge-assisted interface for medical visualization, which reduces the necessary effort to use new visualization methods, by providing only the most relevant ones in a smart way. Consequently, we are able to expand such a system with innovations without the users to worry about when, where, and especially how they may or should use them. We present an application of our system in the medical domain and give qualitative feedback from domain experts.

LiveSync: Smart Linking of 2D and 3D Views in Medical Applications
In this thesis two techniques for the smart linking of 2D and 3D views in medical applications are presented. Although real-time interactive 3D volume visualization is available even for very large data sets, it is used quite rarely in the clinical practice. A major obstacle for a better integration in the clinical workflow is the time-consuming process to adjust the parameters to generate diag...

متن کاملMaternal Exposure to Second-hand Smoke and Super Ovulati on Outcome for Assisted Reproduction
Background The effect of smoking cigarettes is followed by diverse effects on ovaries and developing follicles but the effect of passive smoking on ovarian function is unknown. On the other hand, the ovarian response to induction is a very important step in assisted reproduction. The aim of this study is to compare ovarian response in passive smokers and non-passive smokers in an assisted repro...
