The Impact of Machine Learning on 2D/3D Registration for Image-guided Interventions: A Systematic Review and Perspective
Mathias Unberath, Cong Gao, Yicheng Hu +4
Image-based navigation is widely considered the next frontier of minimally invasive surgery. It is believed that image-based navigation will increase the access to reproducible, sa…
Generalizing Spatial Transformers to Projective Geometry with Applications to 2D/3D Registration
Cong Gao, Xingtong Liu, Wenhao Gu +4
Differentiable rendering is a technique to connect 3D scenes with corresponding 2D images. Since it is differentiable, processes during image formation can be learned. Previous app…
2018 Robotic Scene Segmentation Challenge
Max Allan, Satoshi Kondo, Sebastian Bodenstedt +38
In 2015 we began a sub-challenge at the EndoVis workshop at MICCAI in Munich using endoscope images of ex-vivo tissue with automatically generated annotations from robot forward ki…
Automatic Annotation of Hip Anatomy in Fluoroscopy for Robust and Efficient 2D/3D Registration
Robert Grupp, Mathias Unberath, Cong Gao +7
Fluoroscopy is the standard imaging modality used to guide hip surgery and is therefore a natural sensor for computer-assisted navigation. In order to efficiently solve the complex…
Localizing dexterous surgical tools in X-ray for image-based navigation
Cong Gao, Mathias Unberath, Russell Taylor +1
X-ray image based surgical tool navigation is fast and supplies accurate images of deep seated structures. Typically, recovering the 6 DOF rigid pose and deformation of tools with…
Learning to See Forces: Surgical Force Prediction with RGB-Point Cloud Temporal Convolutional Networks
Cong Gao, Xingtong Liu, Michael Peven +2
Robotic surgery has been proven to offer clear advantages during surgical procedures, however, one of the major limitations is obtaining haptic feedback. Since it is often challeng…
