Providing accurate image-guidance for soft-tissue interventions remains a complex task. Most of the time, preoperative models and planning data are no more valid during the surgical process due to motions and deformations of the organ of interest. In this ...
Correct registration between pre-operative high-resolution images and intra-operative data of lower detail is a fundamental requirement in image-guided liver surgery. We propose a multi modality liver model for measuring the accuracy of such registration m ...
Efficient computer assisted surgery dealing with soft tissues remains a complex task. In most cases, the preoperative information such as 3D organ reconstructions and the planning built upon are no longer valid during the surgical process itself due to the ...

A method for extracting in real-time the position and size of liver vessels from 2D ultrasound images is described. It proceeds in two steps. Starting with a rough localization of the vessels using the scale-space theory, seed points are defined. Then, ves ...
Background The surgical treatment of liver tumours relies on precise localization of the lesions and detailed knowledge of the patient-specific vascular and biliary anatomy. Detailed three-dimensional (3D) anatomical information facilitates complete tumour ...

Flexure pivot based system (1) being one of: a force sensor, a force limiting device arranged to exert a predetermined threshold force, a torque limiting device arranged to exert a predetermined threshold torque, a programmable mechanical memory, or an acc ...
Today, the use of computer assistance to guide surgeon's gestures becomes increasingly common for interventions on rigid organs such as the hips and vertebrae. Guidance information is provided through the representation of the position of surgical instrume ...

Purpose: Computer-assisted surgery has been established in orthopedic and neurosurgery, and is now becoming available as support for soft tissue surgery. Such technology should bridge the gap between pre-operative imaging and the intra-operative scenario b ...
