NCI’s scientific visualisations are a valuable tool that enables researchers to gain deeper insights into complex datasets and easily communicate their scientific results.
NCI’s Vizlab is a team of specialist visualisation programmers that generate images, videos, and virtual reality experiences that can extend the discovery process for our scientists, and communicate high-impact results more broadly.
Researchers can benefit from seeing their data in a new way, and can more easily communicate aspects of the new insights with scientific peers and the general public.

Drishti
Drishti is a unique open source visualisation software package developed by NCI that allows researchers to explore volumetric datasets, such as tomography and electron microscopy, as images and animations. Drishti is available from NCI’s software repository as installable packages suitable for many popular computer platforms.
There are a number of additional modes of Drishti. Drishti Prayog is a version of Drishti that allows users to interact with Drishti-generated visualisations on touchscreen displays. A Drishti VR (Virtual Reality) version is also in development.
The Vizlab team is open to requests from all NCI stakeholders for a consultation and to explore options for visualisation. Contact us for more information.
