Scottish development agency Scottish Enterprise has awarded image display and advanced visualization firm Barco a grant for 1 million pounds ($1.96 million U.S.) to develop new visualization software at its Edinburgh R&D site.

The grant will help researchers at the facility develop software that will make it easier for clinicians to diagnose heart disease and cancer, while at the same time helping Scotland promote its clinical engineering expertise.
