With the highly development of media technology, the way to transmit information has changed significantly. Confronting with the challenge of age, book as the traditional media of information transfer should seek innovation strategy on the aspects of structure, function and form combined with the characteristics of electronic media. The structure of e-book can be multidirectional and irreflexive,...
The systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt is an effective procedure widely used in the therapy of congenital heart defect (CHD). To better understand the local flow features may provide hemodynamic information for patient-specific surgical design. Here, we report on three-dimensional (3D) hemodynamic analysis of two schemes of this procedure; the modified Blalock-Taussig shunt (MBTS) and Melbourne shunt...
Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is one of the most common congenital cardiac anomalies that could be corrected by surgery. However, the effects of surgical anastomosis on aortic arch flow are still unknown. In this study, a unique three-dimensional way was utilized to measure the growth of anastomotic site and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was applied to investigate the hemodynamic effects of...
With the rapid development and wide-spread availability of hand-held market-level 3D scanner, character modeling has recently gained focus in both academia and industry. Virtual shopping applications have been widely-used in e-business. We present our parameter-based human avatar generation system and ongoing work on expanding the virtual shopping to the immersive virtual reality platforms employing...
Virtual Colonoscopy (VC) is a non-invasive clinical procedure that detects colon cancer in humans. VC seeks to supplement and improve the compliance rates for diagnosed patients, since the traditional optical colonoscopy is more painful, and less effective for cancer detection. In this paper, we discuss the benefits of using a 3D immersive user interface for VC. We discuss various design choices that...
To treat cyanotic congenital heart defect, modified Blalock-Taussig (mB-T) shunt is an effective procedure used in clinic. The pulmonary artery is bridged by a conduit with the systemic circulation to increase the flow of blood. Here, we report on three-dimensional (3D) hemodynamic analysis of the effects of conduit anastomosis angle on pulmonary flow. A 3D model based on post-operative medical images...
