Medical image data has traditionally been analyzed using visual
displays and statistical analysis methods. Visual representations
are limited due to the nature of the display and the number of
dimensions that can be represented visually. This paper
describes the use of sonification to represent medical image
data of brain scans of patients with AlzheimerÕs dementia. The
use of sonification is described as an approach to augment
traditional diagnosis methods used to diagnose AlzheimerÕs
dementia.
