Medical image analysis is an important impetus in the area of image processing,
registration and segmentation research. With the technological advance in medical
imaging modalities and techniques, it is possible to gather more and more heterogeneous data, with increasing resolution and accuracy. This often huge amount of data have to be prepared and abstracted for a suitable visualization and further usage in medical applications. Beside the steadily increasing acceptance and integration of computer aided diagnosis and surgery planning in the clinic routine, there is also a growing need for training with virtual simulators. The \RASim" project (Regional Anesthetic Simulator)
[1] has been initialized in 2006 to develop a virtual simulation for performing local
anesthetics on individual virtual patient models.
