In this paper, we present a physically-based simulation framework to build up real-time Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) simulators using pointbased techniques. In our framework, s...
The use of vision based algorithms in minimally invasive surgery has attracted significant attention in recent years due to its potential in providing in situ 3D tissue deformation...

The construction of surgery simulators will be a key tool in the development and diffusion of minimally invasive surgery. Nowadays, most simulators are oriented to training surgeon...
The quest for providing tissue characterization and functional mapping
during minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has motivated the development
of new surgical tools that extend the...

Navigation during Minimally Invasive Surgery
(MIS) has recognized difficulties due to limited field-of-view,
off-axis visualization and loss of direct 3D vision. This can cause
