Voxel-Man

VR Simulators for Medical Training

Gallery

This gallery shows selected milestones of the Voxel-Man project from more than three decades of research and development in medical image analysis, 3D rendering, virtual body models, anatomy atlases, medical training, haptics, and surgery simulation.

Training system for linear type EUS. (Left) The probe is placed in the duodenum, with the view directed to the pancreas. (Upper right) The resulting cross-section can be examined and interrogated about the shown anatomic constituents. (Lower right) The ultrasound image shows an analogous view from a patient examination. EUS meets Voxel-Man (2003) — training system for longitudinal endoscopic ultrasound
