Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel and fast method to localize and track needles during image-guided interventions. Our proposed method is comprised of framework of needle...
We describe scripting facilities to create medical animations for intervention planning based on medical volume data and derived segmentation information. A data independent script...
Image registration is the process of establishing a common geometric reference frame between two or more data sets from the same or different imaging modalities possibly taken at ...
Extracting 3D structures from volumetric images like MRI or CT is becoming a routine process for diagnosis based on quantitation, for radiotherapy planning, for surgical planning a...
