| Abstract | 3-D technologies are transforming the way in which medical images are created but what are the implications for education and computer animators of the future? This paper explores how postgraduate students, researchers, educators, clinicians and patients are collaborating to improve interaction and communication in clinical care. The paper begins by describing the background to the current research developments in medical 3-D visualisation within the School of Media Arts & Imaging at Dundee University. Following an initial critique of clinical literature for arterial disease, and a review of existing 3-D bio-medical animations we have recognized the strategic need for research into long-term patient care and communication. A unique collaboration with the School of Medicine at the University has allowed an opportunity to explore how newly created medical 3-D visualisations, can facilitate mediation and interaction between the disciplines of computer animation and clinical research. The paper discusses three case studies involving student research work in collaboration with the School of Medicine: • Case study 1 exploring the use of 3-D visualisation techniques to enhance medical scan data, particularly in the field of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computive Tomography (CT) scanning. • Case study 2 exploring the use of digital 3-D animation and visualisation techniques in the creation of information resources for Diabetic Retinopathy. • Case study 3 focusing on developing an animation for the purposes of exploring the area of providing health based information with the aim of altering patient behavior. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
