Abstract
This paper presents an open-source software architecture for immersive medical imaging applications. In particular, the software system integrates open-source and cross-platform libraries for medical applications (VTK, ITK) with 3D graphic and virtual reality libraries (OpenSceneGraph, Chromium, VR Juggler) in order to efficiently support both operators and researchers in the medical field. In addition to this, the software system has been enhanced by pervasive computing characteristics like context-awareness and transparent access that enable mobile users to interact with the virtual environment, in a spontaneous and transparent way, with their own mobile devices
