Novel techniques for integrating video augmented X-ray imaging into orthopedic and trauma surgery
Abstract: The aim of this thesis is to propose novel image-guided solutions enabling optimal C-arm X-ray guidance for orthopedic and trauma surgery. The first major contribution to this thesis is investigating the surgical workflow in several orthopedic surgeries which would allow for the effective use of the Camera Augmented Mobile C-arm (CamC). The second contribution is the development and evaluation of parallax-free panoramic X-ray imaging. Finally, we propose a solution to optimally acquire X-ray images by modeling the C-arm and table setup as an integrated 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) kinematics chain. The proposed novel image-guided solutions are validated through pre-clinical experiments, including animal cadaver and dry bone phantoms, as well as clinical trials involving 43 patients.| WebEventForm | |
