Spatial Measurements for Medical Augmented Reality
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a set of Augmented Reality (AR) based interaction techniques for spatial analysis of medical datasets. Computer-aided medical planning tools such as our Virtual Liver Surgery Planning System require precise and intuitive interaction for the quantitative inspection of anatomical and pathological structures. We argue that AR is a superior tool compared to desktop 2D or 3D visualization for performing such analysis, because it allows true direct manipulation of 3D virtual objects in space, while rendering the medical data in the familiar context of the user’s own body.

متن کاملUsing augmented reality for real-time visualization of tactile health examination
An augmented-reality approach to real-time visualization of tactile data with projection on a human organ is presented. A target procedure is breast cancer examination with a tactile sensor. The special tactile sensor is used to measure tissue stiffness values at discrete points of the examined organ. We developed an augmented reality system which integrates the tactile sensor, a head-mounted d...

متن کاملConstruction of Data Flow Networks for Tracking in Augmented Reality Applications
Constructing Ubiquitous Tracking setups that can integrate new and unknown sensors dynamically at runtime is a difficult problem. One issue is that sensors in general are not synchronized, which may lead to registration errors when measurements from multiple sensors are combined. The approach presented in this paper solves the measurement simultaneity problem by creating data flow networks that...
