abstract = {We use the Fly algorithm, an artificial evolution strategy,
to reconstruct positron emission tomography (PET) images. The algorithm iteratively
optimises the position of 3D points. It eventually produces a point cloud, which needs
to be voxelised to produce volume data that can be used with conventional medical image
software. However, resulting voxel data is noisy. In our test case with 6,400 points
the normalised cross-correlation (NCC) between the reference and the reconstruction is
85.53\%; with 25,600 points it is 93.60\%. This paper introduces a more robust
3D voxelisation method based on implicit modelling using metaballs to overcome
this limitation. With metaballs, the NCC with 6,400 points increases up to 92.21\%;
and up to 96.26\% with 25,600 points.},

abstract = {Haptics technologies are frequently used in virtual environments to allow participants to touch virtual objects. Medical applications are no exception and a wide variety of commercial and bespoke haptics hardware solutions have been employed to aid in the simulation of medical procedures. Intuitively the use of haptics will improve the training of the task. However, little evidence has been published to prove that this is indeed the case. In the paper we summarise the available evidence and use a case study from interventional radiology to discuss the question of how important is it to touch medical virtual environments?},

abstract = {This paper presents preliminary results of a novel method that takes
advantage of artificial evolution for positron emission tomography
(PET) reconstruction. Fully 3D tomographic reconstruction in PET
requires high computing power and leads to many challenges. To date,
the use of such methods is still restricted due to the heavy computing
power needed. Evolutionary algorithms have proven to be efficient
optimisation techniques in various domains. However the use of evolutionary
computation in tomographic reconstruction has been largely overlooked.
We propose a computer-based algorithm for fully 3D reconstruction
in PET based on artificial evolution and evaluate its relevance.},

intra-operative planning. In such an application, a virtual representation of a patient is
needed that is interactive, can be viewed in three dimensions (3D), and simulates
physiological processes that change over time. This paper highlights some of the
computational challenges of implementing a real time simulation of a virtual patient,
when accuracy can be traded-off against speed. Illustrations are provided using projects
from our research based on Grid-based visualization, through to use of the Graphics
Processing Unit (GPU).},
