abstract = {Slice-based visualizations of CT and MRI data are frequently used
for diagnosis, intervention planning and intraoperative navigation
since they allow a precise analysis and localization. We present
new techniques to enhance the visualization of cross sectional
medical image data. Our work is focussed on intervention planning
and intraoperative navigation. We address the following problems
of slice-based visualization in these areas: the lack of a
graphical overview on the positions of anatomic structures, the
localization of a target structure and the display of safety zones
around pathologic structures. To improve the overview, we
introduce LIFTCHARTs, attached as vertical bars to a slice-based
visualization. For localizing target structures, we introduce
halos. These techniques restrict the occlusion of the original
data to a minimum and avoid any modification of the original data.
To demonstrate the usability of these visualization techniques, we
show two application scenarios in which the techniques come into
operation.},
