LapAssistent – computer assisted laparoscopic liver surgery

Volker Martens, Armin Besirevic², Osama Shahin, Markus Kleemann

Abstract

A navigation system for laparoscopic interventions on the liver is presented. Pure electromagnetic tracking is used to navigate different instruments. Registration with preoperative data is based on rigid transformations using the liver surface. The system has been evaluated in an animal study and in phantom experiments and will be used in a clinical trial this year.
