Computer-aided surgery intensively uses the concept of navigation: after having collected CT data from a patient and transferred them to the operating room coordinate system, the surgical instrument (a puncture needle for instance) is…
There is an unmet clinical need for developing novel methods to complement and replace the current radiation-emitting imaging-based methods for the detection of loose pedicle screws as a complication after spinal fusion surgery which fail…
The CMS silicon tracking system measures the trajectories of charged particles with a hit resolution of the order of microns in the pixel detector and tens of microns in the strip detector. One of the most important inputs for track…
Purpose: This study demonstrates a proof of concept of a method for simultaneous anatomical imaging and real-time (SMART) passive device tracking for MR-guided interventions. Methods: Phase Correlation template matching was combined with a…
Purpose: In this paper, we present a novel approach for online object tracking in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) surgical videos, targeting localisation and tracking of critical anatomical structures and instruments. Our method addresses…
Object tracking is a key aspect in many applications such as augmented reality in medicine (e.g. tracking a surgical instrument) or robotics. Squared planar markers have become popular tools for tracking since their pose can be estimated…
Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is challenged by uncontrollable, large, and irregular fetal movements. It is, therefore, performed through visual monitoring of fetal motion and repeated acquisitions to ensure diagnostic-quality…
In order to manipulate a deformable object, such as rope or cloth, in unstructured environments, robots need a way to estimate its current shape. However, tracking the shape of a deformable object can be challenging because of the object's…
Intraoperative segmentation and tracking of minimally invasive instruments is a prerequisite for computer- and robotic-assisted surgery. Since additional hardware like tracking systems or the robot encoders are cumbersome and lack accuracy,…
Laparoscopic video tracking primarily focuses on two target types: surgical instruments and anatomy. The former could be used for skill assessment, while the latter is necessary for the projection of virtual overlays. Where instrument and…
The use of Augmented Reality (AR) for navigation purposes has shown beneficial in assisting physicians during the performance of surgical procedures. These applications commonly require knowing the pose of surgical tools and patients to…
Safe navigation of steerable and robotic catheters in the cerebral vasculature requires awareness of the catheters shape and pose. Currently, a significant perception burden is placed on interventionalists to mentally reconstruct and…
In developing medical interventions using untethered milli- and microrobots, ensuring safety and effectiveness relies on robust methods for detection, real-time tracking, and precise localization within the body. However, the inherent…
Internal fixation is a common orthopedic procedure in which a rigid screw is used to fix fragments of a fractured bone together and expedite the healing process. However, the rigidity of the screw, geometry of the fractured anatomy (e.g.…
X-ray computed tomography is a powerful tool for volumetric imaging, but requires the collection of a large number of low-noise projection images, which is often too time consuming, limiting its applicability. In our previous work…
In this paper, we explore the feasibility of developing a novel flexible pedicle screw (FPS) for enhanced spinal fixation of osteoporotic vertebrae. Vital for spinal fracture treatment, pedicle screws have been around since the early 20th…
Periacetabular osteotomy is a challenging surgical procedure for treating developmental hip dysplasia, providing greater coverage of the femoral head via relocation of a patient's acetabulum. Since fluoroscopic imaging is frequently used in…
Tracking of rotation and translation of medical instruments plays a substantial role in many modern interventions. Traditional external optical tracking systems are often subject to line-of-sight issues, in particular when the region of…
Automated tracking of surgical tool keypoints in robotic surgery videos is an essential task for various downstream use cases such as skill assessment, expertise assessment, and the delineation of safety zones. In recent years, the…
Objective: The computation of anatomical information and laparoscope position is a fundamental block of surgical navigation in Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS). Recovering a dense 3D structure of surgical scene using visual cues remains a…
