Context 3-Dimensional (3D) imaging is utilized in a variety of ways in medicine, including ultra-sound facial scanning in utero, breast cancer detection, and mapping blood vessels. 3D imaging can also be used to educate both...
The goal of this project is to build a teaching tool geared towards patients, students, and clinicians to further educate themselves about the anatomical and biochemical implications of various syndromes involving depression...
3D Visualization is a growing field in medicine. It is used for diagnosis, intervention design, and patient education. Medical students and physicians have little difficulty picturing a heart in their mind. Most physicians and...
Context: The purpose of this project was to design a 3-dimensional method for visualizing structures within the brainstem with special attention to those involved in Lateral Medullary (Wallenberg) Syndrome. Wallenberg syndrome...
Visualizing the spatial relationships of anatomical features, gross pathologies, and diagnostic findings is a fundamental part of the training of medical students and other learners in health-professions curricula. But to what...
3D visualization software is a useful tool in
patient education because it allows patients to
put an image to what a physician is describing
to them. With an emphasis on education of
young athletes on the potential...
