Keith Lemon Has the Last Word, LiterallyIn this account of bringing up her son, Luke, Greenman challenges common perceptions of a 'life with labels', and recalls her family's 18 year journey to the edge and back. Writing about the medical issues of Luke's early years, Jan recalls how his diagnoses came about, and how life at The Edge, their aptly named family home, changed as a result.Asperger's syndrome in childrenAttention-deficit hyperactivity disorderAsperger's syndrome in children.Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder.618.92858832092618.92858832092Greenman Jan1812808MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958580703321Life at the edge and beyond4365416UNINA05698nam 2200733Ia 450 991096094500332120250724101628.01-281-11899-097866111189900-08-054905-5(CKB)1000000000364095(EBL)305682(OCoLC)173483828(SSID)ssj0000268106(PQKBManifestationID)11193595(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000268106(PQKBWorkID)10214071(PQKB)10355514(MiAaPQ)EBC305682(Au-PeEL)EBL305682(CaPaEBR)ebr10188173(CaONFJC)MIL111899(EXLCZ)99100000000036409520061206d2007 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrVisualization in medicine theory, algorithms, and applications /Bernhard Preim, Dirk Bartz1st ed.Amsterdam ;Boston Morgan Kaufmann20071 online resource (677 p.)Morgan Kaufmann series in computer graphics and geometric modelingDescription based upon print version of record.0-12-370596-7 Includes bibliographical references (p. 589-640) and index.Front Cover; Visualization in Medicine; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Foreword; Preface; Chapter 1.

The book describes the algorithms, the applications and their validation (how reliable are the results?), and the clinical evaluation of the applications (are the techniques useful?). It discusses visualization techniques from research literature as well as the compromises required to solve practical clinical problems. The book covers image acquisition, image analysis, and interaction techniques designed to explore and analyze the data.
