A computer-assisted surgical trainer for endoscopic surgery is described. The specific case of the transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is presented. This paper concentrates on the instrumentation of the tools – this is the basis of the trainer that allows the users' actions to be monitored and 3D navigational aid to be provided. Solutions are presented for (1) tracking the resectoscope's position and orientation, (2) measuring the cutting tool's motion, and (3) detecting the diathermy's activation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
