Cardiac myofibrilles bundles in the human heart can be located by iteratively tracing the local water diffusion direction inferred from diffusion weighted MRI images. This well k...
We propose an image-based motion tracking algorithm that can be used with stereo endoscopic and microscope systems. The tracking problem is considered to be a time-varying optimiza...

In this study, the feasibility of two-dimensional strain rate estimation of the human heart in vivo is shown. To do this, ultrasonic B-mode data were captured at a high temporal re...

We are developing virtual fixtures for the internal mammary artery (IMA) harvest portion of robot-assisted coronary artery bypass graft procedures. A preoperative CT scan will be p...
We propose a new way of embedding shape distributions in a topological deformable template. These distributions rely on global shape descriptors corresponding to the 3D moment inva...
