Cardiac auscultation is a cost-effective medical procedure used to examine the heart and obtain information regarding the hearts rate, rhythm, location timing, intensity, quality, and shape. Relying on visual, audio and haptic cues, it is a difficult skill to master and with the availability of various new diagnostic techniques, the emphasis on cardiac auscultation is decreasing in both education...
This paper introduces a software development kit (SDK) to provide IT developers and medical community a platform to build new simulation technologies for surgery training. There is described a formal model for simulation objects, scenes and scenarios representation and a software solution for objects interaction modeling and surgery scene simulating. The results are illustrated by the simulation suite...
This poster presents a part-task haptic simulator for ophthalmic surgical training developed for the MicrovisTouch simulation platform. This ophthalmic surgical simulator provides both realistic 3D visualization and haptic feedback. Trainees are able to learn interacting with a physics-based dynamic virtual eye model and receiving tactile feedback by handling virtual instruments while simulating a...
The research presented in this paper aims at developing and validating a predictive tool of individual exposure to solar Ultra-Violet (UV). UV exposure depends on ambient irradiation level and individual factors related to activity (position to the sun, clothing, duration of exposure, and other forms of sun protection). We predict exposure levels of body parts on basis of ambient irradiation levels...
