In the past few decades, many non-invasive monitoring methods have been developed
based on body acoustics to investigate a wide range of medical conditions, including …

In robotically assisted laparoscopic surgery, soft-tissue motion tracking and structure
recovery are important for intraoperative surgical guidance, motion compensation and …

Objective: Recovering tissue deformation during robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery
(MIS) is an important step towards motion compensation and stabilization. This article …

Accurately estimating the complex motion of the heart can unlock enormous potential for
kinetic energy harvesting. This paper presents a foundational dataset for heart kinetic motion …

Arguably the performance of elite athletes today has almost as much to do with science, as it
does with training. Traditionally the measurement of elite athlete performance is commonly …

Heart rate (HR), the number of heart beats every minute, is the most relied upon vital sign for
detecting health deterioration. It is no surprise, then, that the recording of HR is required in …

Recently, model-based visual-tracking techniques have been developed for measuring
physiological motion in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. However, the tracking of …

Background We describe a novel technique for continuous real-time assessment of
myocardial ischaemia using a three-axis accelerometer. Methods In 14 anaesthetized open …

Visual tracking techniques based on stereo endoscope are developed to measure tissue
motion in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. However, accurate 3D tracking of tissue …

OBJECTIVE: We investigated the feasibility of continuous detection of myocardial ischemia
during cardiac surgery with a 3-axis accelerometer. METHODS: Ten patients with significant …
