The latter are much more complex, but allow a higher accuracy of ToD estimation as in principle all relevant cooling mechanisms can be taken into account. The potentially higher accuracy depends on the accuracy of tissue and environmental parameters as well as on the geometric resolution. We in- vestigate the impact of parameter variations and geometry representation on the estimated ToD based on a highly detailed 3D corpse model, that has been segmented and geometrically reconstructed from a computed to- mography (CT) data set, differentiating various organs and tissue types. From that we identify the most crucial parameters to measure or estimate, and obtain a local uncertainty quantifcation for the ToD.

We validate the fitted models against the pre-operatively acquired Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data from the same patients. We consider a cohort of 10 patients who underwent navigated total knee arthroplasty. As part of the surgical protocol the patients’ distal femurs were partially digitized. All patients had an MRI scan two months pre-operatively. The MRI data were manually segmented and the reconstructed bone surfaces used as ground truth against which the fit was compared. Two methods were used to fit the SSM to the data, based on (1) Iterative Closest Points (ICP) and (2) Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM). For both approaches, the difference between model fit and ground truth surface averaged less than 1.7 mm and excellent correspondence with the distal femoral morphology can be demonstrated.

Hierbei verringert sich u.a. der Gelenkspalt aufgrund degenerierten Knorpels oder geschädigter Menisci. Ein in den Gelenkspalt eingebrachter interpositionaler Spacer soll die mit der Osteoarthrose einhergehende verringerte Gelenkkontaktfläche erhöhen und so der teilweise oder vollständige Gelenkersatz hinausgezögert oder vermieden werden. In dieser Arbeit präsentieren wir eine Planungssoftware für die Auswahl und Positionierung eines interpositionalen Spacers am Patientenmodell. Auf einer MRT-basierten Bildsegmentierung aufbauend erfolgt eine geometrische Rekonstruktion der 3D-Anatomie des Kniegelenks. Anhand dieser wird der Gelenkspalt bestimmt, sowie ein Spacer ausgewählt und algorithmisch vorpositioniert. Die Positionierung des Spacers ist durch den Benutzer jederzeit interaktiv anpassbar. Für jede Positionierung eines Spacers wird ein Fitness-Wert zur Knieanatomie des jeweiligen Patienten berechnet und den Nutzern Rückmeldung hinsichtlich Passgenauigkeit gegeben. Die Software unterstützt somit als Entscheidungshilfe die behandelnden Ärzte bei der patientenspezifischen Spacerauswahl.

State-of-the-art surgical tool detection methods rely on supervised one-vs-all or multi-class classification techniques, completely ignoring the co-occurrence relationship of the tools and the associated class imbalance. Methods: In this paper, we formulate tool detection as a multi-label classification task where tool co-occurrences are treated as separate classes. In addition, imbalance on tool co-occurrences is analyzed and stratification techniques are employed to address the imbalance during Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) training. Moreover, temporal smoothing is introduced as an online post-processing step to enhance run time prediction. Results: Quantitative analysis is performed on the M2CAI16 tool detection dataset to highlight the importance of stratification, temporal smoothing and the overall framework for tool detection. Conclusion: The analysis on tool imbalance, backed by the empirical results indicates the need and superiority of the proposed framework over state-of-the-art techniques.
