The virtual temporal bone, a tele-immersive educational environment
Future Generation Computer Systems, 1998Abstract This paper describes the development of the virtual temporal bone, a new method of teaching the complex anatomy of the middle and inner ear utilizing virtual reality and current networking technology. Virtual reality technology allows a better visualization of these three-dimensional structures than conventional media because it supports ...

The temporal bone shields sensorineural, nervous, and vascular structures explaining the potential severity and complications of trauma related to road and sport accidents. So far, no clear data are available on the exact mechanisms involved for fracture processes. Modelization of structures helps to answer these concerns. Our objective was to design a

Simulation of bone aging and virtual reality visualization of cancellous bone structure
2008 Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2008This paper describes a bone modeling effort and virtual reality visualization aimed towards characterizing and predicting human vertebral compression fractures with emphasis on quantifying osteoporosis and aging. A 3D model of the trabecular bone structure is constructed from a stack of muCT images of a human vertebra.

Buccal bone thickness adjacent to virtual dental implants following guided bone regeneration
Journal of Periodontology, 2019AbstractBackgroundCrestal bone thickness is a critical determinant of peri‐implant tissue stability. This retrospective observational study sought to quantify the buccal bone thickness achieved adjacent to virtual dental implants following guided bone regeneration (GBR) surgery and evaluate the influence of patient‐ and procedure‐related variables on ...

Building a Virtual Reality Temporal Bone Dissection Simulator
1997The temporal bone is one of seven bones that comprise the human skull, and has an intimate relationship with many vital structures. Anatomically, its three-dimensional relationships make it one of the most challenging areas for surgeons to understand and master.

Paleontologists Learn to Shake Up Virtual Bones
Science, 2001A sophisticated engineering tool called finite-element analysis is providing paleontologists with insights into how fossil skulls and other bones worked in real life. By making finite-element models of fossils and loading their material properties into a computer, researchers can calculate the compression and tension as force is applied in various ways-
