Detection of surgical instruments plays a key role in ensuring patient safety in minimally invasive surgery. In this paper, we present a novel method for 2D vision-based recognition and pose estimation of surgical instruments that generalizes to different ...
In surgical to industrial manipulation, the operator needs assistance for tasks requiring more than two hands. Teamwork may be the source of errors and inefficiency, especially if the assistant is a novice or unfamiliar with the main operator. The need for ...
Presentation of BIM teaching at the EPFL to architects and engineers students at master level. Explanation of the instruments used during the course to train students to work on a collaborative and interdisciplinary mode. The importance of the allocation o ...
The goal of the project is to generate a 3D model of the C2 cervical vertebra for surgery planning using an atlas-based segmentation technique. A Statistical Shape Model of the C2 vertebra has been created from 91 CT scans using Statismo [1], a toolkit for ...
Major progress in abdominal surgery has occurred over the last decades with the introduction of laparoscopic and minimally invasive techniques in the operating room. These innovative procedures attracted much attention due to several advantages: the need f ...
The present paper describes LIGRA, an innovative technological solution developed in the context of the SAFROS co-funded EU project. Its general goal is to improve patient safety during minimal invasive robotic surgery. Focusing on the risks introduced in ...
Over the past few decades, surgical procedures have made enormous progress, shifting from traditional open procedures to less and less invasive approaches, with the promise of smaller incisions, less complications, better cosmetic results and shorter recov ...
Automatic visual detection of instruments in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can significantly augment the procedure experience for operating clinicians. In this paper, we present a novel technique for detecting surgical instruments by constructing a robu ...
In this study, the role of different 3D vision systems on the patient safety in the context of robotic surgery was studied. Clearly safety is the foremost importance in all surgical procedures. It is well studied in the clinical surgical procedures but the ...
Gottfried Erich Rosenthal (1745-1813) was born and died at Nordhausen (now in Thuringia). As his ancestors, he became a Master-Baker after his studies at the local Gymnasium, where he excelled in mathematics. In 1779, after reading the 1772 treatise by Del ...
