Purpose To demonstrate a simple low-cost system for tele-echocardiology, focused on paediatric cardiology applications. Methods The system was realized using open-source software and COTS technologies. It is based on the transmission of two simultaneous video streams, obtained by direct digitization of the output of an ultrasound machine and by a netcam showing the examination that is taking place...
Purpose Most software systems for oral implantology are based on a two-dimensional multi-view approach, often accompanied with a surface rendered model. Usually they are affected by common errors like anisotropy of the volume and distortion on measurements. A more integrated and realistic 3D approach for implant surgery is desirable in order to gain a deeper and surer knowledge of patient’s anatomy...
Purpose Numerical simulations studying the interactions between radiations and biological tissues require the use of three-dimensional models of the human anatomy at various ages and in various positions. Several detailed and flexible models exist for adults and children and have been extensively used for dosimetry. On the other hand, progress of simulation studies focusing on pregnant women and the...
Purpose Today’s operating room is equipped with different devices supporting the surgeon. Due to the lack of common interfaces between devices, an integrated support of the surgical workflow is missing. In the field of implantation, a smooth exchange of preoperatively planned data between devices is of great interest. Additionally, the availability of standardized preoperative data would facilitate...
Purpose The detection and classification of hepatic vessels in diagnostic images are essential for hepatic pre-surgery planning. Our team has developed a tool for classification, analysis, and 3D reconstruction of the hepatic and portal systems. Methods Our software first extracts a graphic representation of a set of connected voxels, representing both systems. It then calculates two binary volumes...
Purpose Oral disorders such as temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) and dry mouth are common and often require treatment. Maxillofacial massage is used as a complementary and alternative therapy for these disorders. We developed an oral rehabilitation robot that massages the maxillofacial tissues for this purpose. In this paper, we propose a control system for oral rehabilitation robots. Method...
