Description & Coverage
Description:

User Centered Design for Medical Visualization features a comprehensive review of leading advances in medical visualization and human-computer interaction. This book investigates the human roles during a visualization process, specifically motivation-based design, user-based design, and perception-and-cognitive-based design.

An essential resource for researchers, scholars, healthcare practitioners, and medical technology specialists, User Centered Design for Medical Visualization provides real-world examples and insight into the analytical and architectural aspects of user centered design.

Reviews & Statements

"This book reflects such a trend by collecting a number of different research works and surveys in medical visualization with particular emphasis on User-Centered Design (UCD). In general terms, UCD is an approach to provide rationale and justification to the design of a product from the perspective of people who will use it."
