  1. SIGGRAPH 2010:X3D Medical Birds Of a Feather Web3D Consortium President Nicholas F. Polys, Ph.D., Virginia Tech Web3D Consortium Medical Working Group Chairs Michael Aratow M.D. FACEP, San Mateo Medical Center Nigel John Ph.D., Bangor University Wales

  2. Session Topics • What is this BOF anyway? • What is X3D Medical? • Web3D Consortium • Extensible 3D (X3D) • Updates and Activities: • Recent conferences and workshops • Specification progress • Implementation progress • Demos • Future Forward

  3. Medical Birds Of a Feather • Describe, demonstrate and discuss the latest trends and developments in medical graphics and visualization • Define value proposition and new technology in standards roadmaps • Gather community interest and engagement in: • specification development • specification adoption

  4. Convergence in Medical IT • New opportunities in improving quality-of-care and reducing cost-of-care: • Standards enable new analytics • Reproducible Interactive presentations and reports • Leveraging the web multimedia ecology (W3C) • Semantics (FMA, SNOMED CT) • Standards enable new levels of care • Consistent communication between providers and organizations

  5. Medical Imaging & Informatics • Interoperability challenges for the presentation of medical images are well-recognized • DICOM Vendors • Stakeholder Groups (AMA, GOV, MIL, you!) • Why risk a new wheel? • The internet information space is an ecology that functions through a number of specifications • Unifying these standards catalyzes significant value • Proven and unencumbered scene graph abstractions yield a quantum jump for DICOM: the ‘Hopscotch Strategy’

  6. Scope • Consistent and Interoperable presentation states for medical image data • Hospitals, Experts, Patients • Well-developed use cases • Broad impact across the spectrum of care: • Training • Acute & Chronic Care • Prevention • Rehabilitation

  7. X3D: Platform Independence

  8. X3D Medical Working Group • A Working Group chartered to catalyze reproducible medical visualizations across platforms and over the network • Develop Volume visualization standards that meet the industry’s greatest common denominator • Work with DICOM on the n-Dimensional Presentation State work item (WG11)

  9. Use Cases Accessibility outside the radiology suite: • Surgical Planning • Informed Consent • Custom Prostheses • Radiation Therapy • Anatomy Education, Surgical Education …

  10. Requirements Healthcare is ‘Mission Critical’ • An n-D Presentation must include: • Structured and interactive virtual environment display (2D & 3D objects and time series) * • Platform-independent, royalty-free technology to enable vendor innovation • Can be rendered with stereoscopy • Openly-published

  11. Questions? • Comments?

  12. Web3D Collaboration & Convergence ISO W3C - XML - HTML 5 - SVG • OGC • - Web3D MS • Web3D FS • KML Web3D Consortium - X3D - H-Anim - VRML Interoperability & Access Across Verticals IETF - Mime types Open Source Multi-D Random Access Filesystems - HDF5 - NetCDF DICOM - N-D Presentation State - Volume data Khronos - OpenGL - COLLADA

  13. The Web3D Consortium A not-for-profit organization that develops and maintains ISO standards for the description and transmission of 4D data over telecommunication networks. The X3D, H-Anim and VRML standards specify both a file format and a runtime specification that are open and royalty-free www.web3d.org

  14. Web3D & X3D • Proven Innovation • Real time interactive graphics • Lights, cameras, text, meshes, textures and materials • Animations, sensors, volumes & style • Interoperability with web • distributed resources referred via URL/URI • E.G. images, sounds, videos, models, worlds • Durability • ISO Specifications: • Abstract Spec (scene graph) • Encodings • Bindings • H-Anim http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/

  15. X3D Highlights • Abstract scene graph with multiple encodings and API bindings • Well-defined runtime semantics • ISO (SC-24), Royalty-Free • Multiple open-source and commercial implementations (approx 24) • Demonstrated capability for medical applications: • covers significant majority of DICOM requirements • remainder being specified through WG11 work item

  16. X3D Encodings and Bindings An equivalent scene graph can be: encoded in and manipulated by multiple Languages ! http://www.x3dgraphics.com

  17. X3D Components and Profiles • Components • Families of related nodes • Levels • Of support • (fields and functionality) • Profiles • Well-defined nodesets • for vertical application functionality

  18. Recent Events • SPIE Medical Imaging • WG 11, WG 2, WG 12 • DICOM Update • IEEE VR Medical Workshop • Keynote by Henry Fuchs, UNC • Papers & presentations covered volume rendering, haptics and surgical simulation, therapy and training • Web3D 2010

  19. Medical X3D Specification Development • History and Prior work • X3D Volume Rendering • Relationship w/ DICOM standards • Current activities

  20. US ARMY TATRC Contract • Successfully completed in 2007 • MedX3D Draft Specification available to members • Implementations: • SenseGraphicsH3D: Open Source Haptics • Fraunhofer IGD Instant Reality • Semantic scene graph inline or referenced • Volume Rendering Demos www.H3D.org www.InstantReality.org

  21. Opacity Map ISO Surface MIP Map Composed Volume Segmented Volume MedX3D Volume rendering styles with default fields (TATRC deliverable, H3D) RESULTS AND REPORT – Publically Published on Web3D.org !!! Spec development is currently toward a 3.3 Profile.
