Medical
There are many applications of visual computing in the medical domain and this is a particular area of specialism within RIVIC. Expertise ranges from medical image processing, segmentation, and volume rendering techniques; through to interactive tools for training, planning and rehearsal of medical procedures. RIVIC researchers also won funding to run an Advanced Medical Imaging and Visualization Unit. (Embed link to web site)
