abstract = {Background and Objective 

We evaluated laser soldering by using liquid albumin for welding liver injuries. Major liver trauma has a high mortality because of immediate exsanguination and a delayed morbidity from septicemia, peritonitis, biliary fistulae, and delayed secondary hemorrhage. 

Study Design/Materials and Methods 

Eight laceration (6 × 2 cm) and eight nonanatomic resection injuries (raw surface, 6 × 2 cm) were repaired. An 805‐nm laser was used to weld 50% liquid albumin–indocyanine green solder to the liver surface, reinforcing it with a free autologous omental scaffold. The animals were heparinized and hepatic inflow occlusion was used for vascular control. All 16 soldering repairs were evaluated at 3 hours. 

Results 

All 16 laser mediated liver repairs had minimal blood loss as compared with the suture controls. No dehiscence, hemorrhage, or bile leakage was seen in any of the laser repairs …},

abstract = {Fiducial registration is useful both in applications where other registration techniques have poor performance and for validation of new registration techniques. Registration of 3D CT or MR images to 2D X-ray images is particularly difficult, in part because automated contour extraction from 2D images is not yet well solved and in part because of the considerable computational expense in matching the contours to the 3D images. 

This work addresses the problem of fiducial registration from a single X-ray image. We have developed an algorithm for fast, efficient registration of 3D fiducial locations to the lines cast from the X-ray source to the 2D projective image that is 60 times faster than the popular iterated closest-point algorithm. The algorithm has been tested on fluoroscopic images from portable C-arms and on portal images from a radiotherapy device. On these images, six or seven fiducials can be …},

abstract = {Abstract The impact of Computer-Integrated Surgery (CIS) on medicine in the next 20 years will be as great as that of Computer-Integrated Manufacturing on industrial production over the past 20 years. Development of advanced CIS systems is best pursued within the context of systems-oriented multidisciplinary research providing close collaboration between engineering faculty, students, surgeons, and industry. This paper introduces basic themes of CIS systems and describes the overall research strategy pursued within our NSF Engineering Research Center for Computer-Integrated Surgery. We illustrate key concepts with examples drawn from our research.},
