In this perspective article we discuss a certain type of research on visualization for bioinformatics data, namely, methods targeting clinical use. We argue that in this subarea additional complex challenges come into play, particularly so in genomics. We here describe four such challenge areas, elicited from a domain characterization effort in clinical genomics. We also list opportunities for visualization research to address clinical challenges in genomics that were uncovered in the case study. The findings are shown to have parallels with experiences from the diagnostic imaging domain.
在这篇观点文章中,我们讨论了一种针对生物信息学数据可视化的特定类型研究,即针对临床应用的方法。我们认为,在这个子领域中会出现额外的复杂挑战,尤其是在基因组学方面。我们在此描述了从临床基因组学领域特征分析工作中引出的四个此类挑战领域。我们还列出了可视化研究在应对案例研究中发现的基因组学临床挑战方面的机会。研究结果显示与诊断成像领域的经验有相似之处。
