چکیده

As of today endoscopes have been only used as a keyhole to look inside the human body. Our goal is to enhance the endoscope to a full imaging device providing better quantitative and qualitative data. Possible applications for such an enhanced endoscope are referencing, navigation and 3D visualization during endoscopic surgery. To obtain accurate results, a reliable and fully automatic calibration method for the endoscopic camera has been developed which can be used within the operating room (OR). Special care has been taken to ensure robustness against inevitable distortions and inhomogeneous illumination.

Automatic Camera Calibration Applied to Medical Endoscopy

We present a calibration algorithm for cameras with lens distortion, that uses a single image of a planar chessboard pattern acquired in general position. The radial distortion is modeled using the first order division model, and the method provides a closed form estimation of the intrinsic parameters and distortion coefficient. The experimental evaluation shows that the calibration accuracy is...

ToF/RGB Sensor Fusion for 3-D Endoscopy

Acquisition of 3-D anatomical structure in minimally invasive surgery is an important step towards intra-operative guidance. In this context, the rst prototype of a Time-of-Flight/RGB endoscope was engineered for simultaneous range and color data acquisition. Intrinsic and stereo camera calibration are essential to achieve an intuitive visualization of colored surfaces. Due to the early prototy...

Light fields for minimal invasive surgery using an endoscope positioning robot.

OBJECTIVES To generate a fast and robust 3-D visualization of the operation site during minimal invasive surgery. METHODS Light fields are used to model and visualize the 3-D operation site during minimal invasive surgery. An endoscope positioning robot provides the position and orientation of the endoscope. The a priori un-known transformation from the endoscope plug to the endoscope tip (ha...

Fast image mapping of endoscopic image mosaics with three-dimensional ultrasound image for intrauterine fetal surgery.

This paper describes a fast image mapping system that integrates endoscopic image mosaics with three-dimensional (3-D) ultrasound images for assisting intrauterine laser photocoagulation treatment. Endoscopic laser photocoagulation treatment has a good survival rate and a low complication rate for twins. However, the small field of view and lack of surrounding information makes the identificati...

Automatic Calibration of HEC-HMS Model Using Multi-Objective Fuzzy Optimal Models

Estimation of parameters of a hydrologic model is undertaken using a procedure called “calibration” in order to obtain predictions as close as possible to observed values. This study aimed to use the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for automatic calibration of the HEC-HMS hydrologic model, which includes a library of different event-based models for simulating the rainfall-runoff pr...
