Abstract

In this paper we propose interactive visualization techniques which support the spatial comprehension of angiogram images by emphasizing depth information and introducing combined depth cues. In particular, we propose a depth based color encoding, two variations of edge enhancement and the application of a modified depth of field effect in order to enhance depth perception of complex blood vessel systems. All proposed techniques have been developed to improve the human depth perception and have been adapted with special consideration of the spatial comprehension of blood vessel structures. To evaluate the presented techniques, we have conducted a user study, in which users had to accomplish certain depth perception tasks.
