Computer graphics has extensive use in tomography and simulations of operations. Tomography is the technique that allows cross-sectional views of physiological systems in X-rays photography.Moreover, recent advancement is to make model and study physical functions to design artificial limbs and even plan and practice surgery.
Computer-aided surgery is currently a hot topic.

ART AND DESIGN
Computer graphics is widely used in Fine Arts as well as commercial arts for producing better as
well as cost effective pictures. Artists use a variety of programs in their work, provided by
computer graphics. Some of the most frequently used packages include:
- Artist’s paintbrush
- Pixel paint
- Super paint
The Turing test
A test proposed to determine if a computer has the ability to think. In 1950, Alan Turing
(Turing, 1950) proposed a method for determining if machines can think. This method is
known as The Turing Test.
The test is conducted with two people and a machine. One person plays the role of an
interrogator and is in a separate room from the machine and the other person. The
interrogator only knows the person and machine as A and B. The interrogator does not
know which the person is and which the machine is.
Using a teletype, the interrogator, can ask A and B any question he/she wishes. The aim
of the interrogator is to determine which the person is and which the machine is.
The aim of the machine is to fool the interrogator into thinking that it is a person. If the
machine succeeds then we can conclude that machines can think.
