Medical Informatics, Telematics : Medicine Meets Virtual Reality - Proceedings of the 10th Annual Conference

This volume offers papers on many aspects of electronic technology in healthcare.

Core areas covered include imaging, simulation, visualization, data networks, sensors, robotics and displays.

Medical applications include information-guided surgery, education and procedural training, telemedicine, immersive environments, stereoscopic projection, diagnostic tools, rehabilitation and augmented reality.

The papers describe both completed projects and developments in ongoing research.

The book is a collection of papers of the 10th annual "Medicine Meets Virtual Reality" conference (January 2002).

This volume should prove useful as a resource for computer scientists working in medical context, and for creators of data-focused products for clinical care, medical education and procedural training.
