Segmentation and 3D Reconstruction Approaches for the Design of Laparoscopic Augmented Reality Environments

Abstract: Abstract.A trend in abdominal surgery is the transition from minimally invasive surgery to surgeries where augmented reality is used. Endoscopic video images are proposed to be employed for extracting useful information to help surgeons performing the operating techniques. This work introduces an illumination model into the design of automatic segmentation algorithms and 3D reconstruction methods. Results obtained from the implementation of our methods to real images are supposed to be an initial step useful f… Show more

“…A split and merge technique is chosen as the evolution strategy in the method. The method is based on a simplified illumination model with light source and camera systems located in the same spatial point (30). An illumination equation enables the definition of an optimal feature to distinguish structures, which is the gradient of the logarithm of image intensity.…”

“…These reconstruction techniques are named shape-from-X approaches, and use cues like motion, stereo, shading, focus, defocus, contours, etc. for extracting the shape of the objects [8][9][10][11]. In spite of the numerous techniques, not one of them is able to solve all 3D reconstruction issues in laparoscopic surgery without drawbacks.…”

“…Thus, data extraction is performed either from a human sight or from sensor devices. In this context, different methods have been recently used for data acquisition: patient specific procedures description [2][3][4], interview of the surgeons [5], sensor-based methods [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16], using fixed protocols created by expert surgeons [17], or combination between them [18].…”
