Virtual orthognathic surgical planning involves simulating surgical corrections of jaw deformities on 3D facial bony shape models. Due to the lack of necessary guidance, the planning procedure is highly experience-dependent and the planning…

Radiation therapy is an effective and widely accepted form of treatment for many types of cancer that requires extensive computerized planning. Unfortunately, current treatment planning systems have limited or no visual aid that combines…

Three-dimensional models of craniofacial variation over the general population are useful for assessing pre- and post-operative head shape when treating various craniofacial conditions, such as craniosynostosis. We present a new method of…

In the orthognathic surgery, dental splints are important and necessary to help the surgeon reposition the maxilla or mandible. However, the traditional methods of manual design of dental splints are difficult and time-consuming. The…

Patients take care of what their teeth will be like after the orthodontics. Orthodontists usually describe the expectation movement based on the original smile images, which is unconvincing. The growth of deep-learning generative models…

The medical image analysis field has traditionally been focused on the development of organ-, and disease-specific methods. Recently, the interest in the development of more 20 comprehensive computational anatomical models has grown,…

3D modeling is becoming a well-developed field of medicine, but its applicability can be limited due to the lack of software allowing for easy utilizations of generated 3D visualizations. By leveraging recent advances in virtual reality, we…

Computational simulations using methods such as the finite element (FE) method rely on high-quality meshes for achieving accurate results. This study introduces a method for creating a high-quality hexahedral mesh using the Open Anatomy…

Trimming is a core technique in geometric modeling. Unfortunately, the resulting objects do not take the requirements of numerical simulations into account and yield various problems. This paper outlines principal issues of trimmed models…

This paper introduces a multimodal elastic registration algorithm applied to match a generic Finite Element model of the face to several patients morphologies. The method is automatic and appears to be accurate and robust. The computing…

Cranial implant design is a challenging task, whose accuracy is crucial in the context of cranioplasty procedures. This task is usually performed manually by experts using computer-assisted design software. In this work, we propose and…

Craniosynostosis is a medical condition that affects the growth of babies' heads, caused by an early fusion of cranial sutures. In recent decades, surgical treatments for craniosynostosis have significantly improved, leading to reduced…

Image representation is an important topic in computer vision and pattern recognition. It plays a fundamental role in a range of applications towards understanding visual contents. Moment-based image representation has been reported to be…

This chapter aims at introducing and discussing the techniques for the generation of 3D Finite Element Meshes of human organs. The field of computer assisted surgery is more specifically addressed.

Numerical simulations rely on constructing accurate and detailed models to produce reliable results - a task that is often challenging. This task becomes notably more difficult when the model is of the human brain. We create an anatomically…

Computational biomechanics of the brain for neurosurgery is an emerging area of research recently gaining in importance and practical applications. This review paper presents the contributions of the Intelligent Systems for Medicine…

Craniofacial anomalies indicate early developmental disturbances and are usually linked to many genetic syndromes. Early diagnosis is critical, yet ultrasound (US) examinations often fail to identify these features. This study presents an…

Neurosurgery interventions involve complex tracking systems because a tissue deformation takesplace. The neuronavigation system relies only on preoperative images. In order to overcome the soft tissue deformations and guarantee the accuracy…

In this paper, we present a computer-assisted method for facial reconstruction. This method provides an estimation of the facial shape associated with unidentified skeletal remains. Current computer-assisted methods using a statistical…

The objective of this paper is to significantly reduce the manual workload required from medical professionals in complex 3D segmentation tasks that cannot be yet fully automated. For instance, in radiotherapy planning, organs at risk must…
