Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to improve the surgical procedure that includes the pre-operative, intra-operative and post-operative tasks by engineers' challenging ideas. We have been developing a simulation for a stent-graft deployment and a navigation system for breast reconstruction surgery. The phantom simulation for stent-grafting was realized by an electromagnetic three-dimensional location sensor and by MDCT images. It visualized trajectories of a delivery sheath in an aortic model virtually. And also, it demonstrated stent-graft deployments inside a transparent silicone model. The device with a tablet PC for a surgical navigation predicted the position of perforator with an accuracy of less than 10mm.
