Reusable Client-Side JavaScript Modules for Immersive Web-Based Real-Time Collaborative Neuroimage Visualization.

In this paper we present a web-based software solution to the problem of implementing real-time collaborative neuroimage visualization. In both clinical and research settings, simple and powerful access to imaging technologies across multiple devices is becoming increasingly useful. Prior technical solutions have used a server-side rendering and push-to-client model wherein only the server has the full image dataset.

ChRIS--A web-based neuroimaging and informatics system for collecting, organizing, processing, visualizing and sharing of medical data.

The utility of web browsers for general purpose computing, long anticipated, is only now coming into fruition. In this paper we present a web-based medical image data and information management software platform called ChRIS ([Boston] Children's Research Integration System). ChRIS' deep functionality allows for easy retrieval of medical image data from resources typically found in hospitals, organizes and presents information in a modern feed-like interface, provides access to a growing library of plugins that process these data - typically on a connected High Performance Compute Cluster, allows for easy data sharing between users and instances of ChRIS and provides powerful 3D visualization and real time collaboration.

Interplay of cell shape and division orientation promotes robust morphogenesis of developing epithelia.

Epithelial cells acquire functionally important shapes (e.g., squamous, cuboidal, columnar) during development.

Specified neural progenitors sort to form sharp domains after noisy Shh signaling.

Sharply delineated domains of cell types arise in developing tissues under instruction of inductive signal (morphogen) gradients, which specify distinct cell fates at different signal levels. The translation of a morphogen gradient into discrete spatial domains relies on precise signal responses at stable cell positions. However, cells in developing tissues undergoing morphogenesis and proliferation often experience complex movements, which may affect their morphogen exposure, specification, and positioning.

Image analysis of chronic wounds for determining the surface area.

Progress in wound healing is primarily quantified by the rate of change of the wound's surface area. The most recent guidelines of the Wound Healing Society suggest that a reduction in wound size of <40% within 4 weeks necessitates a reevaluation of the treatment. However, accurate measurement of wound size is challenging due to the complexity of a chronic wound, the variable lighting conditions of examination rooms, and the time constraints of a busy clinical practice.
