1P1-G02 A study on visual and haptic reaction between a haptic device and a virtual organ model automatically generated from patient's CT image

Abstract

This paper describes a construction of dynamic model specialized for the shape of large artery, in order to develop a surgical simulator of aortic replacement operation. Recently visualization techniques of human internal organ from various medical images make tremendous progress. However, it is difficult to apply these techniques to construct the virtual organ model of surgical simulator, because of the necessity of feelings. This study aims to automatic construction both visual and dynamic model from 3DCT images.
