Hepatocellular Carcinoma Image-Guided Intervention: Quantitative Characterization of Reagents For Thermochemical Ablation
… makes monitoring the delivery of TCA difficult. Image-guided delivery of TCA can help ensure complete ablation of the tumor and margins for assessment of therapeutic response. This research seeks to address these limitations in image guidance by developing novel theranostic agents that provide …

2D-3D Registration Methods for Computer-Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery
… of the underpinning technologies that enables image-guided intervention in computer-assisted orthopaedic surgery (CAOS). Preoperative 3D images and surgical plans need to be mapped to the patient in the operating room before they can be used to augment the surgical intervention, and this task …

Workflow Analysis, Modelling and Simulation for Improving Conventional and MRI-guided Vascular Interventions
… modelling of workflow for multi-modal vascular image-guided procedures (IGPs). Two approaches are employed to analyse the workflow: Discrete Event Simulation (DES) and purpose-oriented physical models. In contrast to previous studies, the proposed methodology looks in detail the actions carried …
