Home < LEGO IGT and Medical Robotics Tutorial
People:
Danielle Pace, Surgical Planning Lab and Robarts Research Institute
Ron Kikinis, Surgical Planning Lab
Nobuhiko Hata, Surgical Planning Lab
Overview:
This tutorial provides a thorough understanding of the main concepts in image-guided therapy and medical robotics, namely imaging, pre-operative planning, targetting by tracking, navigation and registration. The tutorial is open-source and completely free for anyone to use or modify (see http://www.slicer.org for details and for the BSD style open source license).
The tutorial is:
- Hands-on: Using a LEGO robot, a LEGO phantom (anatomical model) and a tutorial module in 3D Slicer v. 3 means that tutorial participants can use real physical equipment and software to learn about IGT and medical robotics.
- Accessible: The tutorial software is open-source, and the cost of the materials is approximately $300 USD + shipping and taxes.
Tutorial Materials:
Provided by NA-MIC and the Surgical Planning Lab:
- 3D Slicer v. 3 tutorial module
- CT volume of the phantom
- Tutorial slides
- Assembly instructions for the robot and the phantom
- Phantom placement guide
Provided by tutorial participants:
- 1 LEGO Mindstorms NXT kit
- 1 LEGO Deluxe Brick box
- 2 pom-poms
- Linux computer with root access
