Abstract:Breast conserving surgery (BCS) is a common treatment option for women with early-stage breast cancer, but these procedures have high and variable reoperation rates due to positive margins. Current tumor localization technologies do not provide real-time spatial information about the tumor boundary, emphasizing the need for additional navigation tools. This work proposes an image-guidance system for BCS that combines stereo camera soft tissue monitoring with nonrigid registration to account for misalignments f… Show more
