Medical Visualization and Applications of Technology

This edited book explores the use of technology to enable us to  visualize the life sciences in a more meaningful and engaging way. It  will enable those interested in visualization techniques to gain a  better understanding of the applications that can be used in  visualization, imaging and analysis, education, engagement and  training. The reader will also be able to learn about the use of  visualization techniques and technologies for the historical and  forensic settings.

The reader will be able to explore the  utilization of technologies from a number of fields to enable an  engaging and meaningful visual representation of the  biomedical sciences.

We have something for a diverse and  inclusive audience ranging from healthcare, patient education, animal  health and disease and pedagogies around the use of technologies in  these related fields. The first four chapters cover healthcare and  detail how technology can be used to illustrate emergency surgical  access to the airway, pressure sores, robotic surgery in partial  nephrectomy, and respiratory viruses.



The last six  chapters in the education section cover augmented reality and learning  neuroanatomy, historical artefacts, virtual reality in canine anatomy,  holograms to educate children in cardiothoracic anatomy, 3D models of  cetaceans, and the impact of the pandemic on digital anatomical  educational resources.
