3D superquadric glyphs for visualizing myocardial motion
Abstract
Various cardiac diseases can be diagnosed by the analysis of myocardial motion. Relevant biomarkers are radial, longitudinal, and rotational velocities of the cardiac muscle computed locally from MR images. We designed a visual encoding that maps these three attributes to glyph shapes according to a barycentric space formed by 3D superquadric glyphs. The glyphs show aggregated myocardial motion information following the AHA model and are displayed in a respective 3D layout.
