  1. 11. Haptic Milling Simulation in Six Degrees-of-Freedom : With Application to Surgery in Stiff Tissue

    Author : Magnus G. Eriksson; Jan Wikander; Dwight Meglan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Surgical simulation; Virtual reality; Haptic feedback; Surgical training; Medical simulators; 3D visualization; Six degrees-of-freedom; Bone milling;

    Abstract : The research presented in this thesis describes a substantial part of the design of a prototypical surgical training simulator. The results are intended to be applied in future simulators used to educate and train surgeons for bone milling operations. READ MORE

  2. 12. On Surgical Treatment of Aortic Pathology

    Author : Jacob Budtz-Lilly; Kevin Mani; Philip Goodney; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Abdominal aortic aneurysm; EVAR; F BEVAR; aorta dissection.;

    Abstract : The use of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms has advanced from a premature characterization as a “failed experiment” in early 2000 to the predominant modern method of treatment. Technology has accommodated initial shortcomings, but it has also led to expansions in the treatment of ruptured aneurysms and complex aortic pathologies. READ MORE

  3. 13. Anorectal malformations – surgical aspects and transition

    Author : Louise Tofft; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anorectal malformations ARM ; wound dehiscence; PSARP; transition; focus groups; fistula; colostogram; voiding cystourethrogram; cystoscopy; endoscopy; postoperative scarring; scar treatment; anorectal malformations ARM ; posterior sagittal anorectoplasty PSARP ; wound dehiscence; transition; focus groups; fistula; colostogram; voiding cystourethrogram; cystoscopy; endoscopy; postoperative scarring; scar treatment;

    Abstract : Background: Anorectal malformations (ARM) occur in 1/5000 live births (1.2–1.6:1 male:female). Associated malformations are common, influencing, together with ARM-subtype complexity, long-term outcome, follow-up and need of transitional care. READ MORE

  4. 14. Complications after total hip arthroplasty : register-based studies on surgical approach and infections

    Author : Viktor Lindgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: The often excellent outcome of total hip arthroplasty (THA) is sometimes compromised by prosthesis related complications. There is an ongoing debate regarding the effect of surgical approach on prosthesis related complications and patient reported outcome. READ MORE

  5. 15. A Position Control-based Approach to Stiff Objects Haptic Rendering

    Author : Yang Wang; Kjell Andersson; Lei Feng; Anders Robertsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; haptic rendering; position control-based approach; rigid-body interaction; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : With electronic components and computational power becoming more portable and available to general consumers, applications like virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) are on the rise and renovating the industry of training simulators. Though it is not fully accepted in surgical robots, haptic force feedback can be safely introduced into various surgical training simulators to convey the necessary haptic cues needed to develop hand-eye coordination and motor skills.
