Established in 1884, Bangor University is situated on the North Wales coast in the United Kingdom, between the mountains of Snowdonia and the Menai Strait.

2013 -- 2023

This work was supported by the European Union

During this Marie Curie Career Integration Grant (CIG) the fellow has has developed an OpenSource library, gVirtualXRay, to simulate X-ray attenuation on graphics cards (https://gvirtualxray.sourceforge.io/). It can be used in various applications, such as tomography reconstruction in medical physics, or in virtual reality training simulators. The library provides visually realistic rendering methods of inner organs (e.g. liver, diaphragm, and lungs).

2013 -- 2016

This work was supported by the Research Institute of Visual Computing (RIVIC)

The Research Institute of Visual Computing, RIVIC, is the collaborative amalgamation of research programmes between the computer science departments in Aberystwyth, Bangor, Cardiff and Swansea Universities.#
