Accurate estimation and tracking of dynamic tissue deformation is important to motion compensation, intra-operative surgical guidance and navigation in minimally invasive surgery. ...
The use of vision based algorithms in minimally invasive surgery has attracted significant attention in recent years due to its potential in providing in situ 3D tissue deformation...

We present a framework for the interactive simulation of surgical cuts such as being practiced in surgical treatment. Unlike most existing methods our framework is based on tetrah...
We present a behavior simulation algorithm that has the potential of enabling physically-correct, photo-realistic, and real-time behavior simulation for soft tissues and organs. O...
