VR simulation of interventional radiology and microsurgery

Fei Wang

Currently trainees typically learn surgery techniques directly on mocks, animals or cadavers. For safety, cost and ethics reasons, one cannot try all possible strategies to achieve efficient learning. Virtual Reality (VR) based surgery training systems int ...

Improving the Believability of Virtual Characters Using Qualitative Gesture Analysis

Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado

This paper describes preliminary results of a research performed in the framework of the Enactive project (EU IST NoE Enactive). The aim of this research is to improve believability of a virtual character using qualitative analysis of gesture. Using techni ...

ESM-Blur: Handling and Rendering Blur in 3D Tracking and Augmentation

Vincent Lepetit

The contribution of this paper is two-fold. First, we show how to extend the ESM algorithm to handle motion blur in 3D object track- ing. ESM is a powerful algorithm for template matching-based tracking, but it can fail under motion blur. We introduce an i ...

A Real-Time Simulator for Interventional Radiology

Hannes Bleuler, Lindo Robert Duratti, Fei Wang, Evren Samur

Interventional radiologists manipulate guidewires and catheters and steer stents through the patient’s vascular system under X-ray imaging for treatment of vascular diseases. The complexity of these procedures makes trainingmandatory in order to master han ...

Modélisation mécanique de fils pour la simulation chirurgicale

Lindo Robert Duratti

Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) represents one of the major progresses in surgery in the last decade. In general, it is based on the application of small body-cuts through which instruments are inserted into the patient's body allowing the surgeon to carr ...

Multiple-View Scenes: Reconstruction and Virtual Views

Michel Bierlaire, Jean-Philippe Thiran, Javier Cruz Mota

The problem of generating a virtual view of a scene, i.e. a view from a point where there is not a physical camera to capture the scene, has received recently a lot of attention from the computer vision community. This is probably due to the increase of th ...
