Radiology Presenter — Alex Mykris

Interactive Radiography Courtroom Presentation

A team project with Matan Berson for a Medical Legal Visualization class.

Platform

Desktop and iOS

Audience

General public (jury members)

Project Goals

To aid lawyers in presenting radiographic data to juries
Display 2D data in the form of a 3D model
Create an easy to use interface with logical information flow
Create a 3D printed bone for display to the jury

My role in the project

I was tasked with creating the 3D assests and assisting in the wireframing, UX design, and programming. To accomplish my tasks I used a combination of 3D Slicer, ZBrush, Adobe Illustrator, and Unity3D.

3D Slicer

Used CT data provided to create a 3D model of the bone.
The process I used can be seen in the Data Driven Models section of my website.

ZBrush

Cleaned up the CT model to smooth stair stepping and remove artifacts.
Polypainted textures.
Generated UV, texture, and normal maps for Unity3D.
Optimized model for running in Unity 3D.
Designed a model optimized for 3D printing.

Illustrator

Assisted in designing wireframes and UX / UI.

Unity 3D

Assisted in programming and layout of interface.
Learned how to create a cross section using a clipping plane attached to a stationary camera.
Explored the animation system in Unity to sync a clipping plane moving with slider running through CT images.

Wireframe 1

Originally we planned to have a full timeline of events, depicting every aspect of the case files.

Wireframe 2

Due to the limited time available in our class, we eventually scaled it down to focusing on the worst injury, the fractured tibia.

UI Layout

An early design for the layout, we knew we need clear labels for each bone so the jury would know what was being referred to.

3D Print, Front

The 3D printed tibia, made of nylon for high detail and durability.
