Today the main challenge in cancer surgery is increasing the accuracy in tumor resections. Malignant cells must be completely removed, while harm to the surrounding healthy tissue ...
A software system for semi-automatic segmentation of the patellar cartilage is introduced. Providing tools for sub-pixel accurate edge tracing, automatic contour completion, and ad...
Abstract. Electromagnetic tracking is currently the only available technology to track flexible instruments inside the human body without the use of real time imaging technology s...
In this paper, we present the design of our surgery simulator under the aspects of multimodal object representation and parallelization on multicore architectures. Special focus is...
The transformation from an ultrasound (US) image plane to the coordinate system of a position sensor attached to the US transducer can be computed with US calibration algorithms. T...
Abstract. Volume representations of blood vessels acquired by 3D rotational angiography are very suitable for diagnosing an aneurysm. We presented a fully-automatic aneurysm labell...
