— Estimating the pose of an imaging sensor is a central research problem. Many solutions have been proposed for the case of a rigid environment. In contrast, we tackle the case o...
We propose a new Bayesian, stochastic tracking algorithm for the segmentation of blood vessels from 3D medical image data. Inspired by the recent developments in particle filterin...

The effectiveness and clinical benefits of image guided surgery are
well established for procedures where there is manageable tissue motion. In
minimally invasive cardiac, gastro...
In this study, we propose a practical method to estimate cross-sectional wall strain distribution of coronary arteries from clinically acquired intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) ima...

This paper shows how range-flow can help to estimate the elastic constants of complete objects. In our framework, the object is deformed actively by a robotic device pushing into ...
