A spreadsheet framework for visual exploration of biomedical datasets

In this paper, we present our spreadsheet framework, which uses a spreadsheet-like interface for exploring biomedical datasets. The principles and advantages of this class of visualization systems are illustrated, and a case study for the analysis of hip joint congruity is presented. Throughout this use case, we see how end users can compare different datasets, apply parallel operations on data, create analysis templates, and how this helps them in the exploration process.
