“…Some recent simulation systems for laparoscopic surgery and arthroscopic surgery have been presented in [2] [3] [4], but these systems are not tailored for knee surgery. The knee arthroscopic surgery systems presented in [5] [6] mostly rely on highend workstations for real-time visualization. Some of these simulators still lack force feedback and cannot demonstrate real-time topological changes of anatomic structures.…”

Abstract-Surgical training systems based on virtual-reality (VR) simulation techniques offer a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional training methods. This paper describes a VR system for training arthroscopic knee surgery. Virtual models used in this system are constructed from the Visual Human Project dataset. Our system simulates soft tissue deformation with topological change in real-time using finite element analysis. To offer realistic tactile feedback, we build a tailor-made force feedback hardware.

“…This representation has a number of advantages: first, since data organization is the same as the one of the acquired data, errors introduced by reformatting and/or surface extraction are avoided; second, local editing and point location operations can be implemented at low cost; finally, an array-based data structure can be shared very efficiently between concurrent processes. This representation, however, brings important challenges: the number of contacts between voxel-based volumetric objects poses a problem for calculating collisions response [GSMF97]; fluid-dynamic computations scale with the cube of volume dimensions; rendering a dynamic volume under real-time constraints is an inherently complex task, since a large number of volume elements may contribute to the final image.…”

Abstract.A training system for simulating temporal bone surgery is presented. The system is based on patient-specific volumetric object models derived from 3D CT and MR imaging data. Real-time feedback is provided to the trainees via real-time volume rendering and haptic feedback. The performance constraints dictated by the human perceptual system are met by exploiting parallelism via a decoupled simulation approach on a multi-processor PC platform. In this paper, system components are detailed and the current state of the integrated system is presented.

Abstract-This paper presents a new and improved orthopaedic surgery simulator. Its capabilities are to analyze, process and display medical images, to reconstruct several three-dimensional models and to integrate them into a virtual environment. The main contribution of this work is to present a new mixed model (surface and volumetric) that allows to simulate bone machining on real time. The application is based on open source software and it also incorporates haptic technology to improve users immersion. The haptic immersion is computed using a 3D-3D collision detector.The system consists of two stages; first, CT's images of a joint are analyzed, and a plan for intraoperative 3D sections is established. At next stage, the user integrates information from the different objects previously generated from the sectioned bones to interact with virtual models and prosthesis. Force rendering is computed using both the surface model and the volumetric model.The developed simulator is particularized on this paper to simulate the cutting of a bone and implementation of a prothesis in a Total Knee Replacement surgery intervention, although other surgical interventions are being modeled currently.
