Résumé
The screening of oesophageal adenocarcinoma involves obtaining biopsies at different regions along the oesophagus. The localization and tracking of these biopsy sites inter-operatively poses a significant challenge for providing targeted treatments. This paper presents a novel framework for providing a guided navigation to the gastro-intestinal specialist for accurate re-positioning of the endoscope at previously targeted sites. Firstly, we explain our approach for the application of electromagnetic tracking in acheiving this objective. Then, we show on three in-vivo porcine interventions that our system can provide accurate guidance information, which was qualitatively evaluated by five experts.
