Side-looking radar. A radar rotates around an instrument at an adaptable angle. It ends when a collision with an object is detected. The color of the line is determined by the distance to the detected collision.

Image-guided surgery near anatomical or functional risk structures poses a challenging task for surgeons. To this end, surgical navigation systems that visualize the spatial relation between patient anatomy (represented by 3D images) and surgical instruments have been described. The provided 3D visualizations of these navigation systems are often c...

... very small, yellow indicates medium and green indicates large distances. The actual distance ranges for each color can be defined as needed. A full 360 • rotation is completed after 3 s. Together with our clinical partners, we found faster rotational movement to be confusing and slower movement to be too slow to use. The concept can be seen in Fig. 2. ...

In laparoscopic liver resection, surgeons conventionally rely on anatomical landmarks detected through a laparoscope, preoperative volumetric images and laparoscopic ultrasound to compensate for the challenges of minimally invasive access. Image guidance using optical tracking and registration procedures is a promising tool, although often undermin...

Inter-modal image registration (IMIR) and image segmentation with abdominal Ultrasound (US) data have many important clinical applications, including image-guided surgery, automatic organ measurement, and robotic navigation. However, research is severely limited by the lack of public datasets. We propose TRUSTED (the Tridimensional Renal Ultra Soun...
Purpose
Minimally invasive alternatives are now available for many complex surgeries. These approaches are enabled by the increasing availability of intra-operative image guidance. Yet, fluoroscopic X-rays suffer from projective transformation and thus cannot provide direct views onto anatomy. Surgeons could highly benefit from additional informati...
