Ultrasound-based navigation system incorporating preoperative planning for liver surgery

An overview of the current status of the development of our navigation system for resection of liver tumours is given. The system is based on intraoperative three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound volumes for image-guided navigation of surgical instruments. It is also possible to perform a virtual 3D plan...

Summary:An overview of the current status of the development of our navigation system for resection of liver tumours is given. The system is based on intraoperative three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound volumes for image-guided navigation of surgical instruments. It is also possible to perform a virtual 3D planning of the tumour resection and to non-rigidly register these preoperative models to the intraoperative ultrasound volume.
