Abstract :
In this paper, we introduce a new platform for in CABG surgery based on marker-less augmented reality technology. Our real-time system captures the surgery scene by a camera, extracts SURF features and matches them in video sequence to track the patient´s heart. It estimates the camera´s pose robustly using RANSAC and highlights the clogged vessel to guide the surgeon during the surgery.
