Abstract

Augmented reality for medical applications allows physicians to obtain an inside view into the patient without surgery. In this context, we present an augmented reality application running on a standard smartphone or tablet computer, providing visualizations of medical image data, overlaid with the patient, in a video see-through fashion. Our system is based on the registration of medical imaging data to the patient using a single 2D photograph of the patient. From this image, a 3D model of the patient’s face is reconstructed using a convolutional neural network, to which a pre-operative CT scan is automatically registered. For efficient processing, this is performed on a server PC. Finally, anatomical and pathological information is sent back to the mobile device and can be displayed, accurately registered with the live patient, on the screen. Hence, our cost-effective, markerless approach needs only a smartphone and a server PC for image processing. We present a qualitative and quantitative evaluation using real patient photos and CT from the clinical routine in facial surgery, reporting overall processing times and registration errors.
