Session Number: W-01

Overview
This joint session between the MICCAI (Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention) and ISMRM will focus on computer-assisted interventions--in particular, MR-guided radiotherapy, deep brain stimulation, and cardiovascular interventions.

Target Audience
ISMRM members who are interested in the current research on computer-assisted interventions at MICCAI and are looking for cooperation opportunities. This includes ISMRM members who are interested in applying their methodological developments to open problems at MICCAI, as well as ISMRM members who are interested in applying developments from MICCAI to their research.

Educational Objectives
As a result of attending this course, participants should be able to:
- Identify the current high priority research topics in computer-assisted interventions at MICCAI, with special focus on real-time imaging for surgical procedures; and
- Identify the current high priority research topics in computer-assisted interventions on MR-guided radiotherapy.

In any Image-guided intervention, it is important not only to know where you are with respect to a pre- or intra-operative image, but  equally important to be able to display information to the surgeon in an intuitive manner. This presentation outlines state-of-the-art methods for tracking instruments within the surgical field in relation to the patient and their images, as well as visualization systems that provide an intuitive interface between the surgeon and the patient during a procedure.
