Abstract:

This presentation overviews a number of the projects related to image-guided intervention that have taken place in my lab at the Robarts Research Institute at Western University in recent years. Projects cover applications in Image-guided Neurosurgery, Cardiac surgery, as well as the role of simulation phantoms and  technologies as motion magnification and  mixed reality in image-guided interventions.
