This paper is part of the development process of a microsurgical "cooperating" assistant. To evaluate its applicability to augment fine surgical motions, we test precisio...

Abstract. Today, 3-D angiography volumes are routinely generated from rotational angiography sequences. In previous work [7], we have studied the precision reached by registering s...

Classical volume rendering is computed by casting a bundle of parallel rays from a flat viewing plane onto the volume data set, and produces as such a spatially limited view of the...

Abstract. Stereotactic techniques are prevalent in neurosurgery. A fundamental assumption of stereotaxis is that the brain is a rigid body. It has been demonstrated, however, that ...
We present algorithms for the automatic delineation of lung fields in chest radiographs. We first develop a rule-based scheme that detects lung contours using a general framework...
We present a new approach for the computation of the deformation field between three dimensional (3D) images. The deformation field minimizes the sum of the squared differences b...

Abstract. This paper presents an extended version of the fully automated 3D cerebral vessel reconstruction algorithm developed by Wilson and Noble [11] which is applicable to time-...
Abstract. Criteria to design MR (Magnetic Resonance) compatible mechatronic devices, e.g., surgical robots, are discussed. Some of critical interactions between MRI and mechatronic...
