Abstract

Medical image processing led to a major improvement of patient care: the 3D modeling of patients from their CT-scan or MRI provides an improved surgical planning and simulation allows to train the surgical gesture before carrying it out. These two preoperative steps can be used intra-operatively with the development of augmented reality (AR). In this paper, we present the tools we developed to provide our 拢rst prototypal AR guiding system for abdominal surgery.
