Gross P, Kitney RI, Claesen S, Halls JMet al., 2001, MR-compatible endoscopy and tracking for image-guided surgery, International Congress Series, Vol: 1230, Pages: 1076-1082, ISSN: 0531-5131

To increase patient safety of keyhole surgery, flexible endoscopy was augmented using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). For this purpose MR-compatible 9-Fr. flexible endoscopes were developed and tested. Instrument visualisation was achieved using miniature MR tracking coils mounted either on top of the endoscope's tip or inside the working channel. The tracking data were used to superimpose a marker on an MR roadmap and to automatically and continuously image at the endoscope's current location. The techniques were tested on both 0.5-T open and 1.5-T small bore scanners using a tube phantom, a melon model and a porcine model. The combined information from MR imaging, MR tracking and endoscopic imaging were displayed on a Unix workstation using a DICOM-based user interface. The MR techniques were found to be a good complement for the limited field of view (FoV) of endoscopy. In particular, the guided scan mode allowed for direct association between the two modalities' images. © 2001, Elsevier B.V.

This paper presents a description and analysis of the different issues that must be addressed in order to successfully simulate a surgical environment and to obtain reliable measures of surgical skills. It then explores possible solutions to extend the current limits of realism by using today's technology. The proposed techniques are demonstrated on a first prototype system implementing the basic algorithms. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

To obtain a more comprehensive explanation for the generation and interaction of the variabil-ity signais, namely heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure variation (BPV) and instantaneous lung volume (ILV), a nonlinear closed loop model of the neuro-cardiovascular system is presented. The new model which is based on the Volterra series reprsentation is able to appropriately describe several features observed experimentally in the variability signals in the HF, LF and VLF bands. The model aggregates a set of linear and nonlinear transfer functions representing the physiology involved in producing the rhythmical fluctuations in heart rate and blood pressure normally observed in intact human. It will be shown that the combination of these transfer functions in the order dictated by the underlying physiological system enables us to investigate the HRV and BPV in a systematic manner. Before detailing the structure of the new model a conceptual discussion about the small signal and large signal cardiovascular modelling will help to gain a deeper understanding of the modelling of the variability signals and its relation with the cardiovascular system analysis.
