Project Summary
This work defines a spatial symbolic models for anatomy applications
including education and radiation treatment planning. We are defining the
Anatomical Structural Abstraction, a formal model of the anatomy of the
human body, including models of the structure and spatial arrangements of
the organs. Current research topics include modeling anatomical entities,
retrieving and displaying anatomical information, and reasoning about
the relationships among organs, organ parts, and organ features. Future
work includes how the organs develop and how they are transformed.
