zum Forschungsseminar 'Computergrafik, Bildverarbeitung und 
Visualisierung' am Donnerstag, den 24. Juli 2014, 13:15 Uhr, Raum P-701

Wir hören einen Vortrag von:

mit dem Titel

"Combined Three-Dimensional Visualization of Structural Connectivity and 
Cortex Parcellation"


zum Inhalt:

The human cortex is organized in spatially distinct regions of different 
functional units. Cortex parcellations based on magnetic resonance 
imaging (MRI) of living human subjects are common practice, and 
recently, structural connectivity from diffusion weighted resonance 
imaging (dwMRI) have been successfully applied to generate such 
parcellations.

As opposed to functional or effective connectivity, 3D path information 
is important for structural connectivity data. This information can only 
be effectively communicated in anatomical space. However, the 
exploration of this data together with cortex parcellations has proven 
to be challenging due to overlapping tracts and structures, limited 
depth perception, and the large number of tracts which clutter the 
visualization.

In this talk, I will demonstrate how we used illustrative rendering 
techniques to create an interactive 3D visualization that solves these 
problems. We provide an abstract visualization of the structural 
connectivity while still being able to show the full detail on demand.
Furthermore, our visualization shows anatomical context and employs 
textual annotations to help the user to build a mental map of the 
connections in the brain.


Alle Interessierten sind im Namen von Professor Dr. Scheuermann herzlich 
eingeladen.
