Computer graphics for digitally formatted images.

The increasing use of digitally formatted imaging systems requires high-quality interactive gray-scale computer raster graphics systems for the management, display, and analog film recording of digital image and alphanumeric information. These systems are a combination of computer hardware and software and implement a set of graphics protocols. This paper describes a set of interactive graphics protocols that has been developed for clinical use.

Computer graphics in the assessment of severity of spasmodic torticollis: potential role in the evaluation of surgical treatment.

There is a need for objective evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment of spasmodic torticollis so that comparisons can be made between different therapies. Video tape recordings of patients undergoing surgery for spasmodic torticollis were digitized and the movement of a reference marker was tracked by computer. A graphic presentation of oscillation of the marker around a mean position was obtained. Comparison of preoperative and postoperative recordings enabled assessment of the effectiveness of surgery. The results can be tabulated, facilitating accurate documentation of large series of results in publication. This should enable easier comparison of the effectiveness of different therapies.

An on-line computer graphics terminal for radiotherapy treatment planning.

A programmed graphics terminal has been connected on-line to a large time-shared computer for calculating dose distributions in radiotherapy treatment planning and provides a viable alternative to dedicated systems and batch working. The terminal equipment is based on a mini-computer and includes a function-key devise for outline input, a large-screen refresh oscilloscope for viewing results and an X-Y plotter for hard-copy. Radiotherapy dose computation programs in standard Fortran are stored and run on a large remote computer with graphical interaction at the terminal. External beam programs can calculate dose distributions for most commonly used treatment situations and can compute in off-axis planes. Data input is fully interactive and easy to understnad. Dose distributions are displayed as isodose contours. Advantages of the system include accuracy, speed, ease of use and maintenance, and transferability of the programs between different host computers.

Computer graphic study on models of the molybdenum cofactor of xanthine oxidase.

Within the scope of our molecular modeling studies on xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibition by purine analogs we were interested to build up a three-dimensional model of the molybdenum active site. Spectroscopic data indicated that a Mo (VI)atom which is coordinated to sulfur, oxygen and/or nitrogen is clearly involved in substrate binding. In the present study, those data and X-ray crystallography data were used to reconstruct molybdenum-organic complexes from models proposed in the literature. The computer graphic-assisted modeling and evaluation of the model complexes show that the description of the molybdenum center needs further refinement.

Computer graphics as a tool in cytogenetic research and education.

Scanning microscope photometry has been extensively used for image analysis of nuclei and chromosomes and for automated karyotyping. Color graphics terminals, software development and appropriate data manipulation have expanded the scope of scanning microphotometry so that it is now particularly useful for the quantitative analysis of cell components. We have developed application software for displaying nuclear and chromosome densities on a computer terminal of in the form of pixeled images and pseudo-three-dimensional graphic diagrams, as well as for image transformation, object illumination and rotation to enhance chromatin features. The system allowed the microphotometrical scanning of human G-, R-, C-, T-banded chromosomes and sister chromatid exchanges, the measurement of nuclear heterochromatic segments, the detection of minute chromosome structures and the distribution of high staining densities in chromosomes which are difficult to observe with simple light microscopy. The new quantitative visual information given by our interactive graphic method contributes to a better understanding of the nuclear and chromosome structure for the students engaged in cytogenetic research and teaching. The analytical perspective of computer graphics in cytogenetic research and education is briefly discussed.

Use of computer graphic images in teaching dermatology.

A microcomputer-based system for copying, storing, retrieving, and displaying color still images was assembled from commercially available components. The system was tested against 35-mm color photographic transparencies by measuring the performance of 91 medical students in a task of identifying the primary morphology of eight skin lesion images from the displayed images. There was no significant difference in the students' performance between the two display media.
