Simulations of the consequences of tongue surgery on tongue mobility: implications for speech production in post-surgery conditions [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted
Surgery 3, 3 (2007) 252-261, 2007 This paper presents simulations of the impact of tongue surgery on tongue movements and on speech articulation. For this, a 3D biomechanical Finite Element (FE) model of the tongue is used. Muscles are represented within the FE structure by specific subsets of elements.

A Novel Solution of Using Mixed Reality in Bowel and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical Telepresence: 3D Mean Value Cloning algorithm [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted
Surgery,2020, 2021 Background and aim: Most of the Mixed Reality models used in the surgical telepresence are suffering from discrepancies in the boundary area and spatial-temporal inconsistency due to the illumination variation in the video frames. The aim behind this work is to propose a new solution that helps produce the composite video by merging the augmented video
