Is a Depth Camera in Agreement with an Electromagnetic Tracking Device when Measuring Head Position? [PDF]
Introduction: Clinicians typically observe and describe abnormal head postures (AHPs) and may also measure them. Depth cameras have been suggested as a reliable measurement device for measuring head position using face-tracking technology.

Electromagnetic tracking of the pivot-shift. [PDF]
The pivot-shift test is an important examination to assess the rotational laxity in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injured and reconstructed knees. Because this examination is related to subjective knee function, we may still see cases that have residual rotational laxity after ACL reconstruction.

Electromagnetic Servoing—A New Tracking Paradigm [PDF]
Electromagnetic (EM) tracking is highly relevant for many computer assisted interventions. This is in particular due to the fact that the scientific community has not yet developed a general solution for tracking of flexible instruments within the human body.

Electromagnetic tracking in the clinical environment [PDF]
When choosing an electromagnetic tracking system (EMTS) for image‐guided procedures several factors must be taken into consideration. Among others these include the system's refresh rate, the number of sensors that need to be tracked, the size of the navigated region, the system interaction with the environment, whether the sensors can be embedded into
