Summary 3D visualization technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR),
and mixed reality (MR) have gained popularity in the recent decade. Digital extended reality …

Noninvasive engineering models are now being used for diagnosing and planning the
treatment of cardiovascular disease. Techniques in computational modeling and additive …

Background Neurosurgery simulator development is growing as practitioners recognize the
need for improved instructional and rehearsal platforms to improve procedural skills and …

The goal of this work was to nondestructively measure glomerular (and thereby nephron)
number in the whole kidney. Variations in the number and size of glomeruli have been …

Background Educational simulators provide a means for students and experts to learn and
refine surgical skills. Educators can leverage the strengths of medical simulators to …

A new technique is presented for interpolating between grey-scale images in a medical data
set. Registration between neighboring slices is achieved with a modified control grid …

Endovascular coiling is the most common treatment for cerebral aneurysms. During the
treatment, a sequence of embolic coils with different stiffness, shapes, sizes, and lengths is …

Embolic coiling is the most popular endovascular treatment available for cerebral
aneurysms. Nevertheless, the embolic coiling of wide-neck aneurysms is challenging and, in …

Introduction Flow diverting devices and stents can be used to treat cerebral aneurysms too
difficult to treat with coiling or craniotomy and clipping. However, the hemodynamic effects of …

Atmospheric turbulence is a naturally occurring phenomenon that can severely limit the
resolution of long distance optical and infrared sensors. Because atmospheric turbulence …
