Using multiple images and contours for deformable 3D–2D registration of a preoperative CT in laparoscopic liver surgery
Laparoscopic liver resection is a challenging procedure because of the difficulty to localise inner structures such as tumours and vessels. Augmented reality overcomes this problem by overlaying preoperative 3...

Augmented reality in laparoscopic liver resection evaluated on an ex-vivo animal model with pseudo-tumours
The aim of this study was to assess the performance of our augmented reality (AR) software (Hepataug) during laparoscopic resection of liver tumours and compare it to standard ultrasonography (US).

Using Multiple Images and Contours for Deformable 3D-2D Registration of a Preoperative CT in Laparoscopic Liver Surgery
Deformable registration is required to achieve laparoscopic augmented reality but still is an open problem. Some of the existing methods reconstruct a preoperative model and register it using anatomical landma...

A case series study of augmented reality in laparoscopic liver resection with a deformable preoperative model
Previous work in augmented reality (AR) guidance in monocular laparoscopic hepatectomy requires the surgeon to manually overlay a rigid preoperative model onto a laparoscopy image. This may be fairly inaccurat...

Combining Visual Cues with Interactions for 3D–2D Registration in Liver Laparoscopy
Augmented Reality (AR) in monocular liver laparoscopy requires one to register a preoperative 3D liver model to a laparoscopy image. This is a difficult problem because the preoperative shape may significantly...

Preoperative liver registration for augmented monocular laparoscopy using backward–forward biomechanical simulation
Augmented reality for monocular laparoscopy from a preoperative volume such as CT is achieved in two steps. The first step is to segment the organ in the preoperative volume and reconstruct its 3D model. The s...

Preliminary trial of augmented reality performed on a laparoscopic left hepatectomy
Laparoscopic liver surgery is seldom performed, mainly because of the risk of hepatic vein bleeding or incomplete resection of the tumour. This risk may be reduced by means of an augmented reality guidance sys...

Combined Preoperative Portal and Hepatic Vein Embolization (Biembolization) to Improve Liver Regeneration Before Major Liver Resection: A Preliminary Report
Insufficient volume of the future liver remnant (FLR) is a major cause of non-resectable disease in patients presenting with primary or metastatic liver tumours. The objective of this study was to evaluate the...

Open AccessDoes intraoperative closed-suction drainage influence the rate of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy?
Although drainage of pancreatic anastomoses after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is still debated, it remains recommended, especially in patients with a high risk of post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Mod...

Deformable Registration of a Preoperative 3D Liver Volume to a Laparoscopy Image Using Contour and Shading Cues
The deformable registration of a preoperative organ volume to an intraoperative laparoscopy image is required to achieve augmented reality in laparoscopy. This is an extremely challenging objective for the liv...

Pancreaticobiliary maljunction and choledochal cysts: from embryogenesis to therapeutics aspects
Pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM) and choledochal cysts (CC) are rare and little-known diseases. Several definitions have been proposed for the PBM, but the most widely accepted is an excessive length of th...
