SFB 603, B6: Computer aided endoscopy of the abdomen In the project B6 algorithms for a MUSTOF
(Multisensor-Time-of-Flight) endoscope were developed and
the manufacturing of a first prototype was enforced. While
the construction of the prototype is underway at Richard
Wolf GmbH, basic algorithms for the use of the endoscope in
medical applications were developed: this were algorithms
for the calibration, registration of image sensors utilized
in the MUSTOF endoscope and reconstruction of static
scenes.
These algorithms constitute a proof of concept for the
handling of data acquired from a TOF camera: the
calibration improves the reconstruction accuracy, the
registration of the image sensors enables photorealistic
reconstruction and the on-the-fly registration of
consecutively acquired frames allows the reconstruction of
complex static scenes.
These results are a valuable foundation for the development
of a MUSTOF endoscope as they ensure, that if the data
provided by the endoscope is suitable, valuable information
can be provided in medical applications: the registration
of the surface reconstruction with data from other pre- or
intraoperative modalities like CT or MR enables
intraoperative Augmented Reality. Furthermore, the
operation area can be explored, navigated and measured in
3-D without the need to actually move the endoscope.
Several other features have been suggested by clinical
partners: collision detection and positioning of
the endoscope at a certain relative position to anatomical
structures may provide benefits for the patient (reduced
risk of injury) and for the surgeon (better perception of
the anatomy of the operation area). | Project manager: Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. Werner Hohenberger, a.D., Prof. Dr.-Ing. Joachim Hornegger, Prof. Dr. Günther Greiner, Prof. Dr. med. Thomas Horbach, Dr. med. Sophie Krüger
