N1 - The challenge facing the NHS in Britain is how to incorporate efficient systems of patient centered health care strategies and support to enhance motivation and that will increase adherence to specific therapies and lifestyle approaches, in line with the new understanding of the diversity of human society. Patient centered health care strategies must be delivered by personalised motivation plans.

The vision of the HD3D Group is to support long-term patient care and promote positive and sustained change in patients’ behaviour through the use of engaging and accessible 3D imaging technologies. The research aims to develop the required ‘Tools’ that will focus the technologies of communication, promote person-to-person interaction and greater opportunity for personal autonomy and initiative.
