CAMP’s Article at the IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging (TMI)

We are excited to share with you our article published in the IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging: “Development and Pre-Clinical Analysis of Spatiotemporal-Aware Augmented Reality in Orthopedic Interventions” (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9252943)

This work, which is the outcome of several years of our partnership with colleagues at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, integrates Augmented Reality through the entire workflow of image-guided therapies. We reveal how exemplary procedures are redefined by taking full advantage of head-mounted displays when entirely co-registered with the imaging systems at all times. This manuscript is among the rare numbers of works around Augmented Reality that has been published in a highly selective medical imaging journal in the past few years. Congratulations to all the authors!
