• Abstract: The aim of this work is to implement a simple freehand ultrasound (US) probe calibration technique. This will enable us to visualize US image data during surgical procedures using augmented reality. The performance of the system was evaluated with different experiments using two different pose estimation techniques. A near-millimeter accuracy can be achieved with the proposed approach. The developed system is cost-effective, simple and rapid with low calibration error

  Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is emerging as a promising novel imaging modality with various potential surgical applications. We show that dynamically changing lighting conditions in the operating room dramatically affect the performance of HSI applications. We propose a novel learning-based approach to automatically recalibrating hyperspectral images during surgery.

  To support minimally-invasive mitral valve repair, quantitative measurements from the valve can be obtained using an infra-red tracked stylus. Hand-eye calibration is required that links both coordinate systems and is a prerequisite to project the points onto the image plane. A complementary approach to this is to use a vision-based endoscopic stereo-setup to detect and triangulate points of interest, to obtain the 3D coordinates. Preliminary results indicate that 3D landmark estimation, either labeled manually or through partly automated detection with a deep learning approach, provides more accurate triangulated depth measurements when performed with a tailored image-based method than
