IGCN: Image-to-graph Convolutional Network for 2D/3D Deformable Registration [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2022, 2021 Organ shape reconstruction based on a single-projection image during treatment has wide clinical scope, e.g., in image-guided radiotherapy and surgical guidance. We propose an image-to-graph convolutional network that achieves deformable registration of a 3D organ mesh for a single-viewpoint 2D projection image.

FlowMesher: An automatic unstructured mesh generation algorithm with applications from finite element analysis to medical simulations [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 In this work, we propose an automatic mesh generation algorithm, FlowMesher, which can be used to generate unstructured meshes for mesh domains in any shape with minimum (or even no) user intervention. The approach can generate high-quality simplex meshes directly from scanned images in OBJ format in 2D and 3D or just from a line drawing in 2-D.

A semi-automatic computer-aided method for surgical template design [PDF]
Scientific Reports 6, Article number: 20280, 2016, 2016 This paper presents a generalized integrated framework of semi-automatic surgical template design. Several algorithms were implemented including the mesh segmentation, offset surface generation, collision detection, ruled surface generation, etc., and a special software named TemDesigner was developed.

ENDOSCOPIC MANAGEMENT OF MESH MIGRATION FOLLOWING HIATAL HERNIA REPAIR [PDF]
ABCD: Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia DigestivaBACKGROUND: The use of mesh in the repair of large hiatal hernias is still controversial. One of the most feared adverse events related to the use of mesh is erosion into the esophageal and gastric walls. AIMS: To record the endoscopic treatment of mesh
