Joint-preserving Tumor Resection and Reconstruction Using Image-guided Computer Navigation
"... Abstract Background Joint-preserving surgery is performed in select patients with bone sarcomas of extremities and allows patients to retain the native joint with better joint function. However, recurrences may relate to achieving adequate margins and there is frequently little room for error in tu ..."

image-guided computer navigation and determined local recurrences, function, and complications. Methods We retrospectively studied eight patients with bone sarcoma of extremities treated surgically by navigation with fused CT-MR images. We assessed the accuracy of resection in six patients by comparing
4 Image Guided Robotic Systems for Focal Ultrasound Based Surgical Applications
"... Surgical resection remains the mainstay for conventional treatment of cancers/tumors. Normally, a margin area surrounding the cancer is removed to minimize relapse. However, due to the need for large access wounds for excising deep-seated abnormalities, traditional open surgery is associated with se ..."

Bone-mounted miniature robot for surgical procedures: concept and clinical applications
- Concept and Clinical Applications,” IEEE Trans. Robot. Automat
, 2003
"... Abstract—This paper presents a new approach to robot-assisted spine and trauma surgery in which a miniature robot is directly mounted on the patient’s bony structure near the surgical site. The robot is designed to operate in a semiactive mode to precisely position and orient a drill or a needle in ..."

in various surgical procedures. Since the robot forms a single rigid body with the anatomy, there is no need for immobilization or motion tracking, which greatly enhances and simplifies the robot’s registration to the target anatomy. To demonstrate this concept, we developed the MiniAture Robot for Surgical
SPIE Image-Guided Procedures, Robotic Procedures, and Modeling, VOLUME 8671 A Gaussian Mixture + Demons Deformable Registration Method for Cone-Beam CT-Guided Robotic Transoral Base-of-Tongue Surgery
"... Purpose: An increasingly popular minimally invasive approach to resection of oropharyngeal / base-of-tongue cancer is made possible by a transoral technique conducted with the assistance of a surgical robot. However, the highly deformed surgical setup (neck flexed, mouth open, and tongue retracted) ..."

at the surgical theaters of tertiary tumor centers. Currently, with the evolutions in diag-nostic imaging, surgical techniques, metallurgy, and adjuvant therapies, more than 90 % of bone sarcomas patients are treated with limb salvage surgery. It is well documented in the related literature that limb salvage
Detection of hematogenous tumor cell dissemination predicts tumor relapse in patients undergoing surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases

Invited Review Presurgical Planning for Tumor Resectioning
"... Since the birth of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)—a noninvasive tool able to visualize brain function—now 15 years ago, several clinical applications have emerged. fMRI follows from the neurovascular coupling between neuronal electrical activity and cerebrovascular physiology that lead ..."

Semiautomatic registration of pre- and post brain tumor resection laser range data: method and validation
- IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering
, 2009
"... Abstract—This paper presents a semiautomatic method for the registration of images acquired during surgery with a tracked laser range scanner (LRS). This method, which relies on the registration of vessels that can be visualized in the pre- and the postresection images, is a component of a larger sy ..."

system designed to compute brain shift that occurs during tumor resection cases. Because very large differences between pre- and postresection images are typically observed, the development of fully automatic methods to register these images is difficult. The method presented herein is semiautomatic
