Soft tissue monitoring of the surgical field: detection and tracking of breast surface deformations

Soft tissue monitoring of the surgical field: detection and tracking of breast surface deformations

Soft tissue monitoring of the surgical field: detection and tracking of breast surface deformations 650 366 IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME)
Handwritten skin fiducials are precisely and reliably tracked through tool interference, large motions, and fiducial distortions. These work-flow friendly surface measurements provide continuous, near-real-time intraoperative data for image guidance. read more
