  • Augmented Reality Magnifying Loupe for Surgery
    E:N:600:656 Computer-Integrated Surgery II Spring 2019 Final Report Augmented Reality Magnifying Loupe for Surgery Mentors : Long Qian Group11 : [email protected] Tianyu Song Dr. Mathias Unberath [email protected] [email protected] Dr. Peter Kazanzides [email protected] May 7, 2019 Abstract A magnifying loupe is often used in surgical procedures such as dentistry. There are three principal reasons for adopting magnifying loupes for operative dentistry: to enhance visu- alization of fine detail, to compensate for the loss of near vision (presbyopia), and to ensure maintenance of correct posture. In previous work, a digital magnification system, was im- plemented on a video see-through head-mounted display (HMD) for surgical applications. In this work, we present an optical see-through HMD (OST-HMD) based augmented reality magnifying loupe system for surgery. We have adapted the Magic Leap One (Magic Leap, Plantation, FL, USA), a light-weight OST-HMD, to provide augmented reality guidance in the optical magnified view. In this report, we present the basic design of the modified HMD, and the method and results of the calibration of Magic Leap One displays to a real-world scene. The final calibration errors are measured both in the magnified view and regular view, respectively. The mean target augmentation error is 3:47 ± 1:03 mm in the magnified view and 2:59 ± 1:29 mm in the regular view. i Contents 1 Introduction1 1.1 Background and Related Work.........................1 1.2 Objectives and Significance..........................2 2 Technical Approach3 2.1 HMD Modification...............................3 2.2 System Calibration...............................4 2.3 AR Rendering..................................6 3 Experimental Results and Evaluation9 3.1 User-Dependent Calibration..........................9 3.1.1 Eye-tracking Based Calibration....................9 3.1.2 Real-to-Virtual Alignment Calibration...............

  • Diagnostic Direct Laryngoscopy, Bronchoscopy & Esophagoscopy
    Post-Operative Instruction Sheet Diagnostic Direct Laryngoscopy, Bronchoscopy & Esophagoscopy Direct Laryngoscopy: Examination of the voice box or larynx (pronounced “lair-inks”) under general anesthesia. An instrument called a laryngoscope is carefully placed into the mouth and used to visualize the larynx and surrounding structures. Bronchoscopy: Examination of the windpipe below the voice box in the neck and chest under general anesthesia. A long narrow telescope is passed through the larynx and used to carefully inspect the structures of the trachea and bronchi. Esophagoscopy: Examination of the swallowing pipe in the neck and chest under general anesthesia. An instrument called an esophagoscope is passed into the esophagus (just behind the larynx and trachea) and used to visualize the mucus membranes and surrounding structures of the esophagus. Frequently a small biopsy is taken to evaluate for signs of esophageal inflammation (esophagitis). What to Expect: Diagnostic airway endoscopy procedures generally take about 45 minutes to complete. Usually the procedure is well-tolerated and the child is back-to-normal the next day. Mild throat or tongue discomfort may persist for a few days after the procedure and is usually well-controlled with over-the-counter acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Motrin). Warning Signs: Contact the office immediately at (603) 650-4399 if any of the following develop: • Worsening harsh, high-pitched noisy-breathing (stridor) • Labored breathing with chest retractions or flaring of the nostrils • Bluish discoloration of the lips or fingernails (cyanosis) • Persistent fever above 102°F that does not respond to Tylenol or Motrin • Excessive coughing or respiratory distress during feeding • Coughing or throwing up bright red blood • Excessive drowsiness or unresponsiveness Diet: Resume baseline diet (no special postoperative diet restrictions).

  • Laryngeal Endoscopy (Rigid, Flexible, and Stroboscopy)
    Laryngeal Endoscopy (Rigid, Flexible, and Stroboscopy) Visualization of the larynx can be performed via several different methods. Special tools are required for laryngeal evaluation. Mirror laryngoscopy (1) o While the patient’s tongue is protruded, a mirror is placed in the posterior oropharynx with gentle pressure on the soft palate while light is reflected caudally into the larynx. o Mirror laryngoscopy can be challenging for both the examiner and the patient, has limited magnification, and may require topical anesthesia. o Mirror laryngoscopy provides the most accurate color representation of laryngeal and pharyngeal tissue because there is no light or digital distortion. Flexible laryngoscopy (2) o A flexible laryngoscope is placed into the nasal cavity, through the naso- and oropharynx and positioned cephalad to the larynx for a full laryngeal assessment. o Nasal anesthesia (lidocaine) and/or nasal decongestants (oxymetazoline/phenylephrine) may be applied to the nose for the purpose of improving patient comfort and tolerance o Supplemental procedures such as dynamic voice assessment (comprehensive laryngeal movement evaluation), functional endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (+/- sensory testing), and other laryngeal procedures (ex. injections, laser surgery, biopsies) can be performed during flexible laryngoscopy. o Flexible laryngoscopy is ideal for evaluating vocal fold weakness, real-time/unencumbered evaluation of task-specific abnormalities (ex. my voice is problematic when I do this), and assessing the intensity of glottal attack. Rigid Laryngoscopy (3) o Rigid laryngoscopy is performed by placing a rigid 70- or 90-degree telescope into the oropharynx during tongue protrusion. o Sometimes, oropharyngeal and/or tongue application of anesthesia (ex. lidocaine, cetacaine) can be helpful for patient tolerance.

  • Augmented Reality Magnifying Loupe for Surgery
    Augmented Reality Magnifying Loupe for Surgery Project Proposal Member: Tianyu Song Mentors: Long Qian, Mathias Unberath, Peter Kazanzides Objectives: Design a surgical loupe mount for optical see-through head-mounted display (HMD) and develop a calibration method to associate the field-of-magnified- vision, the HMD screen space and the task workspace. Background and previous works: A magnifying loupe is often used in surgical procedures, including neurosurgery and dentistry. In this project, we focus on dental applications. There are three principal reasons for adopting magnifying loupes for operative dentistry: to enhance visualization of fine detail, to compensate for the loss of near vision (presbyopia), and to ensure maintenance of correct posture. Augmented Reality (AR) has been used in the medical domain for treatment, education, and surgery. Useful information, measurements and assistive overlays can be provided to the clinician on a see-through display. Many dental practitioners use magnifying loupes routinely for clinical work, and dental undergraduates are increasingly wearing them when training, so AR guidance in the loupe can potentially help the practitioner in navigation and operation. In previous work, an augmented reality magnification system, in other words, a virtual loupe, was implemented on a video see-through head-mounted display (HMD) for surgical applications. The system was evaluated by measuring the completion time of a suturing task performed by surgeons. Although it was widely accepted by surgeons as a useful functionality, surgeons were not satisfied with the video quality. Thus, this project uses physical loupes to achieve higher quality optical magnification. Technical Approach Workflow Overview Develop HMD calibration method for Choose single eye approriate Design mount Render AR HMD content with Tool tracking Develop distortion stereo HMD calibration method Figure 1 Technical workflow HMD Choice There are three common Optical See-through HMDs, Microsoft HoloLens, Magic Leap One, and Epson BT-300.

Participants performed endoscopy and submucosal injection on cadaver as well as simulator. Before and after simulator and cadaver training, attendees completed a questionnaire on intubation, manoeuvring esophagus, stomach and duodenum for diagnostic endoscopy and scope positioning, needle out, submucosal injection and elevation of mucosa and needle in. The steps of ESD- marking, precut and submucosal dissection were attempted on the stomach of human cadaver. Results: Ten participants with very little prior experience of endoscopy felt the cadaver based training more beneficial in obtaining the sub mucosal plane and positioning the needle for four quadrant injection as compared to the endoscopic simulator (ES). The attendees felt that while ES has the advantage of providing feedback for the procedure, training on cadaver gave more realistic tactile experience and feel of the elasticity of the gut wall.
