Book Design and Evaluation of 3 D Pre operative Planning Software

Download or read book Design and Evaluation of 3 D Pre operative Planning Software written by Mike Blackwell and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "We describe a methodology for evaluating the user interface components of a pre-operative planning system for performing complex 3-D spatial manipulation and reasoning tasks. The design of a pre- operative planning system for the alignment of acetabular implants in total hip replacement (THR) surgery is used as an example. For this application, we have implemented several alternatives to two of the planner's sub-systems. We report the results of a pilot study which evaluate these alternative components with respect to task and user specific design criteria."

Book Computer Assisted Musculoskeletal Surgery

Download or read book Computer Assisted Musculoskeletal Surgery written by Lucas E. Ritacco and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-02 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​Computer-Assisted Surgery (CAS) is a new tool for performing complex procedures in a predictable and safe way. This book is designed to serve as a comprehensive review of Computer-Assisted Surgery, covering the current status of both research and applications. CAS includes Virtual Preoperative Planning (VPP) and Intraoperative Virtual Navigation (IVN), which are a set of technologies used to measure oncological margins in 3-Dimensions (3D), to locate small intraosseous tumors and apply controlled resections preserving anatomical structures. During VPP, patient acquired multimodal images are processed and an interactive virtual scenario is created. This can then be used as a platform to measure oncological distances and preplan osteotomies in safe areas. IVN is a procedure which allows the execution of the VPP with a mean error of less than 3mm. For the student, medical doctors, research and development scientists or new researchers, the protocols are central to the performance of Computer-Assisted technologies.
