Image-guided transoral surgery in childhood
Child's Nervous System, 2009The study aims to report a preliminary experience of image guidance during transoral surgery in a paediatric population. In paediatric practice, the small size of the oropharynx and the distortion of the craniocervical junction anatomy (whether congenital or acquired) are both factors that may compromise the transoral approach.

Advances in Image-Guided Thoracic Surgery
Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2016Different modalities of surgical excisional biopsy can be used when needle biopsy fails to provide tissue diagnosis. These modalities include intraoperative localization techniques, such as ultrasonography, and preoperative localization techniques, such as liquid dyes, radiolabeled aggregates, hook wires, microcoils, and navigational bronchoscopy ...

Image-guided endoscopic ENT surgery
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1997Intraoperative three-dimensional (3D) "navigation" has significantly improved patient safety during operative procedures on the paranasal sinuses and the frontal skull base. The ISG Viewing Wand (ISG Technologies, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada) is now used routinely for such procedures in our hospital at the present time.

Image-Guided Frontal Sinus Surgery
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2005Most patients with inflammatory frontal sinus disease that is un-responsive to medical therapy can be surgically managed with conventional endoscopic techniques; image-guidance technology is not usually necessary.However, in more advanced cases or for revision surgery, a surgical navigation system can be extremely beneficial in preoperative planning ...

Multimodality image-guided epilepsy surgery
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2001Co-registration of imaging modalities in the diagnosis of epilepsy is now commonly used in major epilepsy centres. However, the incorporation of these registrations into an image-guided system has only recently been developed. Using techniques of segmentation, surface matching and/or voxel-based matching, we have been able to co-register FLAIR MRI ...

Adapting the fluoroscope to image-guided surgery
Injury, 2003Image-guided techniques have been well established in all surgical disciplines for years. To achieve an optimised work flow during image-guided surgery, the surgeon should be able to manipulate the visual feedback and therefore the imaging unit. C-arm fluoroscopy is the imaging modality routinely used for intraoperative imaging in orthopaedic surgery ...

A Framework for Image-Guided Breast Surgery
2006Breast-conserving surgery for the treatment of cancer frequently requires a repeat operation due to the initial excision of the tumour being incomplete. Improved image guidance, using preoperative MR images, might help to reduce this high re-excision rate.

Dense Vision in Image-guided Surgery
2014Image-guided surgery needs an efficient and effective camera tracking system in order to perform augmented reality for overlaying preoperative models or label cancerous tissues on the 2D video images of the surgical scene. Tracking in endoscopic/laparoscopic scenes however is an extremely difficult task primarily due to tissue deformation, instrument ...

Image Guided Surgery and Its Potential
1997The use of higher technology in medicine promises improved outcomes and enhanced productivity. That is, successful techniques will lead to lower cost, higher quality care for a larger population. In surgery, these changes range from the more efficient use of skilled medical practitioners, through improvements to conventional practice (a recent example ...
