Interactive Augmented Reality for Robot-Assisted Surgery
Maria Paola Forte, Katherine J Kuchenbecker, PhD. Max Planck Institute for Intelligent SystemsObjective: Most robotic surgery applications of augmented reality (AR) focus on bringing pre-operative images (e.g., MRI) into the surgeon’s intra-operative workspace. We are exploring alternative uses and interaction methods of AR. In collaboration with laparoscopic surgeons, we identified five possible AR tool categories:… Continue Reading

Intracorporeal versus Extracorporeal Anastomosis in Minimally-Invasive Rectosigmoid Resection
Kasim Mirza, MD, Carey Wickham, MD, Andreas M Kaiser, MD, FACS, FASCRS. USC Colorectal SurgeryIntroduction: Intracorporeal anastomosis (ICA) during minimally invasive colorectal resections (robotic/laparoscopic) has been thought to have advantages over extracorporeal anastomosis (ECA). It avoids exteriorization of the colon with room air exposure, traction, and manipulation in the resection and anastomosis phase and for… Continue Reading
