The new multidimensional imaging modalities are powerful counterparts to traditional forms of observation-surgery, postmortem examination, or extensive mental reconstruction. VR technologies have reached unimagined levels of sophistication and utility, giving physicians and students new avenues for planning and practicing surgery and diagnostics. The two volumes of Information Technologies in Medicine thoroughly explore the use of VR technology in three-dimensional visualization techniques, realistic surgical training prior to patient contact, and actual procedures in rehabilitation and treatment, including telemedicine and telesurgery. Editors Akay and Marsh have brought together all the available information on the subject of VR technologies in medicine and medical training to create the first comprehensive guide to the state of the art in medicine for use by students, doctors, and researchers.; Volume I is devoted to the fundamentals of these new information technologies and their many applications in medical education and practice, especially in the area of medical and surgical simulations. 606 $aArtificial Intelligence 606 $aComputer Simulation 606 $aSurgical Procedures, Operative 606 $aRehabilitation$xmethods 615 12$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 22$aComputer Simulation. 615 22$aSurgical Procedures, Operative. 615 22$aRehabilitation$xmethods. 676 $a610.2856 702 $aAkay$b Metin 702 $aMarsh$b Andy 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911019909203321 996 $aInformation Technologies in Medicine, Medical Simulation and Education: Vol. 1$94418402 997 $aUNINA
