Toward surface-based registration of a virtual preoperative cutting guide onto the mandible for reconstruction surgery
Yue Yang, Jie Ying Wu
Mandibular reconstruction restores facial continuity and oral function after segmental resection. Patient-specific cutting guides transfer a computed tomography (CT)-based plan to…
Marker-free deformable registration and fusion for augmented reality-guided positive margin localization during tumor resection surgery
Yue Yang, Annie Benson, Matthieu Chabanas +7
Positive margins in head and neck oncologic surgery require mapping specimen-side pathology findings to the patient resection bed. This is challenging because pathologists identify…
Contour-Constrained Deformable Registration with Parameter Characterization for Head and Neck Surgical Guidance
Qingyun Yang, Jon S. Heiselman, Ayberk Acar +5
With 890,000 annual new cases globally, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma has one of the highest recurrence rates among solid malignancies. Although frozen section analysis is…
Markerless Augmented Reality Registration for Surgical Guidance: A Multi-Anatomy Clinical Accuracy Study
Yue Yang, Fabian Necker, Christoph Leuze +8
Purpose: In this paper, we develop and clinically evaluate a depth-only, markerless augmented reality (AR) registration pipeline on a head-mounted display, and assess accuracy acro…
Automated Assessment of Kidney Ureteroscopy Exploration for Training
Fangjie Li, Nicholas Kavoussi, Charan Mohan +2
Purpose: Kidney ureteroscopic navigation is challenging with a steep learning curve. However, current clinical training has major deficiencies, as it requires one-on-one feedback f…
PERSEUS: Perception with Semantic Endoscopic Understanding and SLAM
Ayberk Acar, Fangjie Li, Susheela Sharma Stern +9
Purpose: Natural orifice surgeries minimize the need for incisions and reduce the recovery time compared to open surgery; however, they require a higher level of expertise due to v…
