Recent advances in image-guided interventions are having major impact in surgery and interventional radiology. Such advances include the incorporation of emerging imaging technologies, integration of multi-modality image information, deformable registration methods, integration with endoscopy / laparoscopy and other computer vision systems, and emerging robotics platforms. This symposium presents the latest research in each area: Dr. Siewerdsen in intraoperative imaging and registration for neurological and orthopaedic spine surgery; Dr. Cleary in the development of new image-guided surgical robotics; Dr. Miga in novel deformable registration methods for image-guided procedures in soft-tissue surgeries; and Dr. Paydarfar in emerging technologies for otolaryngology - head and neck surgery. Potential advantages to precision and safety are reviewed, and challenges of cost, complexity, and workflow are addressed.
Learning Objectives:
1. Learn how advances in intraoperative imaging and registration are enabling high-precision intervention in spine and orthopaedic surgery.
2. Learn how emerging surgical robotic systems are addressing specific needs in a broad range of surgical interventions.
3. Learn how model-based deformable image registration can improve precision in soft-tissue surgeries ranging from the liver and kidney to brain.
4. Learn how emerging imaging and visualization methods are advancing the the standard of care in otolaryngology - head and neck surgery.
