- Book Synopsis
- Visualization, Visual Analytics and Virtual Reality in Medicine: State-of-the-art Techniques and Applications describes important techniques and applications that show an understanding of actual user needs as well as technological possibilities. The book includes user research, for example, task and requirement analysis, visualization design and algorithmic ideas without going into the details of implementation. This reference will be suitable for researchers and students in visualization and visual analytics in medicine and healthcare, medical image analysis scientists and biomedical engineers in general. Visualization and visual analytics have become prevalent in public health and clinical medicine, medical flow visualization, multimodal medical visualization and virtual reality in medical education and rehabilitation. Relevant applications now include digital pathology, virtual anatomy and computer-assisted radiation treatment planning.
- About The Author
- Bernhard Preim was born in 1969 in Magdeburg, Germany. He received the diploma in computer science in 1994 (minor in mathematics) and a Ph.D. in 1998 for a thesis on interactive visualization for anatomy education from the Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg. In 1999 he moved to Bremen where he joined the staff of MEVIS and directed the "computer-aided planning in liver surgery group. Since Mars 2003 he is full professor for Visualization at the computer science department at the Otto-von-Guericke-University of Magdeburg, heading a research group focussed on medical visualization. His research interests include vessel visualization, exploration of blood flow, visual analytics in public health, virtual reality in medical education and since recently narrative visualization. He authored "Visualization in Medicine (Co-author Dirk Bartz, 2007) and "Visual Computing in Medicine (Co-author: C. Botha, 2013). Bernhard Preim founded the working group Medical Visualization in the German Society for Computer Science and served as speaker from 2003-2012. He was president of the German Society for Computer- and Robot-Assisted Surgery (www.curac.org). He was Co-Chair and Co-Organizer of the first and second Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing in Biology and Medicine (VCBM) in 2008 and 2010 and lead the steering committee of that workshop until 2019. He is the chair of the scientific advisory board of ICCAS (International Competence Center on Computer-Assisted Surgery Leipzig, since 2010). From 2011-2018 he was an associate editor of IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging and and IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Graphics (2017-2022). Currently he serves in the editorial board of Computers & Graphics (since 2019). He was also regularly a Visiting Professor at the University of Bremen where he closely collaborates with Fraunhofer MEVIS (2003-2012) and was Visiting Professor at TU Vienna (2016).
