Measuring organ shift and deformation for port placement in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery

Objective: Port placement is a crucial pre-operative task in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. Due to the insufflation process, the abdominal shape is deformed while the internal organs are shifted in position. These changes need to be considered when determining the optimal port locations...
