Prototypes for medical navigation often require complex hardware and software setups. Students at THU have developed a Java-based example that can be easily compiled. It is built using Gradle and can be connected to other tools such as MITK-IGT or PLUS via OpenIGTLink. At BVM they demonstrated a use case for stroke research: A catheter in a brain vessel dummy was localized using AI in simulated fluoroscopy images and navigated to a target.

A good prosthetic fit is crucial for comfort and mobility, but measuring the exact anatomical shape of a residual limb is still challenging. A group of THU students investigated 3D reconstruction of residual limbs using freehand ultrasound and a liner with integrated fiducial markers, all without external tracking. Interested? Read the BVM paper or visit poster P13 at this year’s BVM workshop.

Did you know that there is overlap between what radiologic technologists and nurses are trained to do? It's not just about taking x-rays.

Chaundria Singleton explains how radiologic technologists need to understand how your body, medical devices, and medications react with medical imaging processes to be able to support you on your healthcare journey.
