Autonomous Intraluminal Navigation of a Soft Robot using Deep-Learning-based Visual Servoing

Navigation inside luminal organs is an arduous task that requires non-intuitive coordination between the movement of the operator's hand and the information obtained from the endoscopic video. The development of tools to automate certain tasks could alleviate the physical and mental load of doctors during interventions allowing them to focus on...

Model-to-Image Registration via Deep Learning towards Image-Guided Endovascular Interventions

Cardiologists highlight the need for an intra-operative 3D visualization to assist interventions. The intra-operative 2D X-ray/Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) images in the standard clinical workflow limit cardiologists’ views significantly. Compared with image-to-image registration, model-to-image registration is an essential approach...
