  • Title: Toward robotized beating heart TECABG: assessment of the heart dynamics using high-speed vision.
    Author: Cuvillon L, Gangloff J, de Mathelin M, Forgione A.
    Journal: Med Image Comput Comput Assist Interv; 2005; 8(Pt 2):551-8. PubMed ID: 16686003.
    Abstract:
    Active robotic filtering is a promising solution for beating heart Totally Endoscopic Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (TECABG). n this work, we assess the heart motion dynamics using simultaneously igh speed imaging of optical markers attached to the heart, ECG signals and ventilator airflow acquisitions. Our goal is to make an assessment of the heart motion (shape, velocity, acceleration) in order to be able to make more accurate specifications for a dedicated robot that could follow this motion in real-time. Furthermore, using the 2 additional inputs (ECG, airflow), we propose a prediction algorithm of the motion that could be used with a predictive control algorithm to improve the tracking accuracy.
