An augmented reality platform for CABG surgery
Mehrdad Heydarzadeh, Mehrdad Nourani, James L Park · 2015
In this paper, we introduce a new platform for in CABG surgery based on marker-less augmented reality technology. Our real-time system captures the surgery scene by a camera, extracts SURF features and matches them in video sequence to track the patient's heart. It estimates the camera's pose robustly using RANSAC and highlights the clogged vessel to guide the surgeon during the surgery.
