Particularities of visualisation of medical and wellness data through a digital patient avatar

Abstract

In this work particularities of visualisation of medical and wellness data through a digital patient avatar are given from a standpoint of a proposed approach, under which data for a visualisation may be obtained from a variety of sources through defined interfaces, while end-user interfaces of distinct complexity and level of immersion into the model may be exposed to different categories of users. A short introduction of important medical data exchange standards, specifications and models is offered. A brief overview of projects relevant to a subject of this work is given. The proposed approach is presented along with examples of use-cases.
