International Symposium Medical
Visualisation CGiV-MediViz |
|
|
|
MediViz has evolved rapidly from its original concentration purely on
medical visualisation and is now possibly the leading interdisciplinary forum
for researchers and professionals in the bio-medical domain to exchange ideas
and report results on visualisation within their disciplines to the wider
world. It thus provides important support for researchers who are faced
increasingly with the necessity of adopting a multidisciplinary approach to
address the problems faced in pushing forward the boundaries of modern
medicine. The theme for this conference is Multi-scale
Bio-Medical Structure Sensing, Modelling, Simulation and Visualisation.
Of particular interest is the capture and early processing of natural data to
be used as input for external and internal biomedical structure definition.
Papers are encouraged which demonstrate the measurement and modelling of the
dynamics of biomedical data and structures; these may range from the
microscopic, cellular level to the macroscopic organ or whole-patient level. These structures often undergo constrained interactions
which need to be measured and realistically simulated in order to understand
the fundamental processes, to facilitate the development of bio-medical
products or to enable advances in critical bio-medical applications such as
life-saving patient treatment.
At the microscopic level, examples are the exciting
developments that now visibly link nuclear and cytoplasmic structural changes
in cells to changes in their environment, for example induced by drugs,
radiation or other novel agents being explored in the quest for new
diagnostic or therapeutic techniques. At the macroscopic scale, examples are
the characterisation, simulation and prediction of internal and external body
movements for robot assisted (radio)surgery, intensity modulated and image
guided (radio)therapy, and the emerging modality of ion-beam therapy.
Quality of life, encompassing recovery patterns and
rehabilitation following treatment is an important, but often neglected
theme. In this age of evidence-based medicine, how do we objectively define
and visualise recovery patterns following treatments that impact on patient
mobility, hearing, speech and vision. Hence, papers addressing the evolution
of new biomedical and clinical tools and their likely impact are especially
welcome.
Papers are invited that address information
visualisation, from the microscopic to the macroscopic level, in biomedical, biomechanical and other related fields. These include: Quantitative imaging and measurement of
biomedical structures. Animation, simulation and predictive
modelling. Interaction, deformation, growth and
evolution of biomedical structures. Models, including physico-scientific,
particle, implicit surfaces, finite element etc. Multi-modality visualisation, searching,
characterisation and comparison of complex structures. Surface, volume, dynamic and sensory data
reduction, mapping and user representation. Display and interaction technologies,
including VR, augmentation, stereoscopic, haptics etc. Image & computer applications,
including screening, diagnostics, surgery & cancer therapy. Human interfacing, virtual image projection,
retinal projection, tactile and sound stimuli etc. Virtual and augmented reality. Emerging technologies. |
