During a neurosurgical intervention, the brain tissues shift and warp. In order to keep an accurate positioning of the surgical instruments, one has to estimate this deformation f...
Abstract Real-time simulation of deformable objects involves many computational challenges to be solved, particularly in the context of haptic applications, where high update rates...
This paper deals with the reconstruction of smooth, flexible, isometrically embedded flat surfaces in 3D, such as a sheet of paper or a flag waving in the wind, from a set of 2...
Quantitative analysis of cardiac motion is of great clinical interest in assessing ventricular function. Real-time 3-D (RT3D) ultrasound transducers provide valuable threedimensio...
