The Eurographics Association organizes a biannual competition to
acknowledge the contribution of computer graphics in the medical field,
and to encourage further development. Originally called "Eurographics
Medical Prize", the competition was renamed to "Dirk Bartz Prize for
Visual Computing in Medicine" in 2010 -- in honor of Dirk Bartz who
passed away far too early in March 2010. Dirk Bartz was a highly
recognized and enthusiastic scientist, teacher and promoter of Visual
Computing in Medicine; furthermore, he was an active member of the
Eurographics Association and Chair of the EG Medical Prize in 2007 and
2009.

== Call ==

Submissions to the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual Computing in Medicine
2019 are being invited from researchers and developers who can
demonstrate that a particular benefit in a medical application has
resulted from the use of visual computing technology that they have
produced/developed. We welcome submissions from all areas of visual
computing -- examples include the use of new data visualization
techniques, interaction methods, or virtual/augmented environments.
Entries typically summarize a body of research and/or development that
has been conducted over the course of a project, PhD thesis, etc. and
particular weight is put on demonstrating the medical impact of the
work.

== Winners ==

The top three winning entries of the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual
Computing in Medicine 2019 will receive a prize and their submission
will be published in the "Short Papers and Medical Prize Awards" digital
media proceedings. The judging panel will select the winning entry on
the basis of its clinical value, use of visual computing methods, and
novelty. All three winning teams will have an opportunity to present
their results at Eurographics 2019, which means that at least one author
of each winning team must attend to present the results.
