Background
Objective quantification of anatomical variations about the femur head–neck junction in pre‐operative planning for surgical intervention in femoro‐acetabular impingement is problematic, as no clear definition of average normal anatomy for a specific subject exists.
Methods
We have defined the normal‐equivalent of a subject's anatomy by using a statistical shape model and geometric shape...
Background: Since the advent of robotic‐assisted surgery, the value of using robotic systems to assist in surgical procedures has been repeatedly demonstrated. However, existing technologies are unable to perform complete, multi‐step procedures from start to finish. Many intraocular surgical steps continue to be manually performed.
Methods: An intraocular robotic interventional surgical system (IRISS)...
Background
Various sensors and methods are used for evaluating trainees' skills in laparoscopic procedures. These methods are usually task‐specific and involve high costs or advanced setups.
Methods
In this paper, we propose a novel manoeuver representation feature space (MRFS) constructed by tracking the vanishing points of the edges of the graspers on the video sequence frames, acquired by the...
Background
A Baker's cyst is a pathological structure located near a kneepit, which causes discomfort and reduces mobility of the knee. It is commonly treated with aspiration, which often requires MRI scanning and US guidance. The aim of this study was to propose a novel planning solution for semi‐autonomous aspiration of the Baker's cyst using only MRI imaging.
Methods
The proposed method requires...
Background
Clinically, irregular protrusions and blockages after stent deployment can lead to significant adverse outcomes such as thrombotic reocclusion or restenosis. In this study, we propose a novel fully automated method for irregular lumen segmentation and normal/abnormal lumen classification.
Methods
The proposed method consists of a lumen segmentation, feature extraction, and lumen classification...
