A02: Knowledge-based Navigated Liver Surgery

The aim of this project is to develop a knowledge-based assistance system to aid the surgeon in planning and performing complex liver procedures. It will take into account the relevant clinical and morphological parameters as well as well-established oncological standards. A sensor-based registration of the preoperative planning data, including the patient’s anatomy, should further enable the surgeon to perform the planned surgical procedure safely, thereby improving the clinical outcome in terms of remnant liver volume and liver function.
