A virtual laboratory for temporal bone microanatomy
(cavities), canals, and fissures. Crucial nerves, blood vessels, and auditory and vestibular organs coexist in this dense bone structure in a complex 3D configuration , causing medical science to once regard the temporal bone as a surgically forbidden area (see Figure 1). Today, otolaryngology (ear, nose, and throat) surgeons still find it difficult to envision and master these complex anatomic...
متن کاملSurgical simulator for temporal bone dissection training.
UNLABELLED Temporal bone dissection plays an important role in the training of surgeons; however, they are difficult to obtain. AIM To develop a synthetic replica of the temporal bone for dissection training. STUDY DESIGN Experimental. MATERIALS AND METHODS An acrylic synthetic resin replica was obtained from a human temporal bone. For the evaluation of the method, we selected five ear su...
متن کاملComparison of cadaveric and isomorphic virtual haptic simulation in temporal bone training
BACKGROUND Virtual surgery may improve learning and provides an opportunity for pre-operative surgical rehearsal. We describe a novel haptic temporal bone simulator specifically developed for multicore processing and improved visual realism. A position locking algorithm for enhanced drill-bone interaction and haptic fidelity is further employed. The simulation construct is evaluated against cad...
متن کاملA Haptic and Virtual Reality Temporal Bone Surgery Simulator
The work presented here describes the development of a surgical training for the milling process in temporal bone surgery. The system will be used to educate and train surgeons to do simulation of complicated skull bone operations, such as removal of cancer tumors. The skull bone data is taken from a CT-scan and visualized using a modified Marching cubes algorithm. Different haptic rendering al...
متن کاملMetastatic Adenocarcinoma of Temporal Bone with Collet-Sicard Syndrome
Introduction: Metastatic tumors of the temporal bone are extremely rare. Collet-Sicard syndrome is an uncommon condition characterized by unilateral palsy of the lower four cranial nerves. The clinical features of temporal bone metastasis are nonspecific and mimic infections such as chronic otitis media and mastoiditis. Case Report: This report describes a rare case of metastatic adenocarcino...
