Modern biomedical computer simulations produce spatiotemporal results that are often viewed at a single point in time on standard 2D displays. An immersive visualization environment (IVE) with 3D stereoscopic capability can mitigate some shortcomings of 2D displays via improved depth cues and active movement to further appreciate the spatial localization of imaging data with temporal computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results. We present a semi-automatic workflow for the import, processing, rendering, and stereoscopic visualization of high resolution, patient-specific imaging data, and CFD results in an IVE. Versatility of the workflow is highlighted with current clinical sequelae known to be influenced by adverse hemodynamics to illustrate potential clinical utility.
现代生物医学计算机模拟产生的时空结果通常在标准二维显示器上的单个时间点进行查看。具有3D立体功能的沉浸式可视化环境(IVE)可以通过改进深度线索和主动移动来减轻二维显示器的一些缺点,以便进一步结合时间计算流体动力学(CFD)结果来理解成像数据的空间定位。我们展示了一种用于在沉浸式可视化环境中导入、处理、渲染和立体可视化高分辨率、患者特异性成像数据及CFD结果的半自动工作流程。已知当前临床后遗症会受到不良血流动力学的影响,通过该工作流程的通用性来说明其潜在的临床效用。
