Description
The proceedings of the 11th annual "Medicine Meets Virtual Reality" conference provides research on many data-centred applications for clinical care and medical education. It should be a useful reference source for IT researchers working in a biomedical context,medical educators, physicians interested in emerging clinical tools, and medical device developers. A major focus is on surgical simulation and supporting technologies - haptics, tissue modelling, and virtual environments. Assessment and validation studies are represented, as well as papers on simulator design and didactics. Another core area is information-guided therapy, from diagnostics through surgery. Discussion of imaging techniques is complemented by papers on visualization, data fusion, and augmented reality. Advances in robotic surgery are also covered.
