  • Abstract
    Novel methods of laser measurements and interventions in the framework of image-guided surgery are presented. The first innovation concerns the basis of error propagation studies in registration chains from CT via OR navigator to the surgical laser tool holder. Here, we propose a holographic ground truth. The second innovation concerns a laser-based inherent sound-guidance principle for burr hole depth measurement.
