Imaging: visualizing the possibilities.

Visualizing the possibilities

First, Johnson-Laird (1983, pp. 157, 165) de nes images as models from a particular viewpoint, but this is inessential to the idea of an image. For example, the transformation of an image from an occulocentric frame to an object-centered frame is just one of many transformations it may undergo in being put into more abstract form. It seems arbitrary to treat di erently images in di erent refere...

Possibilities and Limits in Visualizing Large Amounts of Multidimensional Data

In this paper, we describe our concepts to visualize very large amounts of multidimensional data. Our visualization technique which has been developed to support querying of large scientific databases is designed to visualize as many data items as possible on current display devices. Even if we are able to use each pixel of the display device to visualize one data item, the number of data items...

Possibilities and limitations of intravital imaging

Recently, Raymond Reif and colleagues from the Leibniz Research Center in Dort-mund have published a technical article about two-photon based intravital imaging (Reif et al., 2016). The strength of this article is the outstanding quality of the presented videos, which show organs of living mice, namely liver, kidney and intestine, with a resolution of approximately 200 nm. Key features of the e...
