• Abstract: In this study, we emphasize the integration of a pre-trained MICA model with an imperfect face dataset, employing a self-supervised learning approach. We present an innovative method for regenerating flawed facial structures, yielding 3D printable outputs that effectively support physicians in their patient treatment process. Our results highlight the model's capacity for concealing scars and achieving comprehensive facial reconstructions without discernible scarring. By capitalizing on pre-trained models and necessitating only a few hours of supplementary training, our methodology adeptly devises an optimal model for reconstructing damaged and imperfect facial features. Harnessing contemporary 3D printing technology, we institute a standardized protocol for fabricating realistic, camouflaging mask models for patients in a laboratory environment.

  Surgery digitalization is the process of creating a virtual replica of real-world surgery. We present a proof of concept (PoC) for surgery digitalization that is applied to an ex-vivo spinal surgery. We employ five RGB-D cameras for dynamic 3D reconstruction of the surgeon, a high-end camera for 3D reconstruction of the anatomy, an infrared stereo camera for surgical instrument tracking, and a laser scanner for 3D reconstruction of the operating room and data fusion.

  3D patient body modeling is critical to the success of automated patient positioning for smart medical scanning and operating rooms. Existing CNN-based end-to-end patient modeling solutions typically require customized network designs demanding large amount of relevant training data. We propose a generic modularized 3D patient modeling method consists of (a) a multi-modal keypoint detection module with attentive fusion for 2D patient joint localization. We demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method by extensive patient positioning experiments on both public and clinical data.
