[visionlist] PhD Positions in Computer Science

[Mersmann, Sven]

We offer two PhD positions for graduate students in computer science.
Subject: 3D C-Arm supported calcaneus reconstruction

Fractures of the calcaneus need a surgical reconstruction of the bone fragments which are reattached by surgical screws. A possible complication of this intervention is that the screws are positioned to deep in the bone leading to a fixation of other anatomical structures. To control the success of the operation a 3D C-Arm is used.
In this research project an automatic orientation of the C-Arm image data is elaborated as well as a segmentation and pose estimation of the used screws to visualize the operation result intra-operatively to the surgeon.
