About Myself

Jan Gumprecht

I am a student in Computer Engineering from the University of Mannheim, Germany with a specification in Optoelectronics. At the moment I am writing my diploma thesis on the project described below. This is not my first stay in North America. I studied in Waterloo, On, Canada from September 2006 to August 2007 .

Project - Development and Validation of an Open-Source Real-Time Freehand 3D Ultrasound Navigation System for Liver Surgery with GPGPU Acceleration

In my project I developed an open-source navigation system with general purpose graphics unit (GPGPU) acceleration for real-time freehand 3D-Ultrasound using conventional hardware equipment.

The proposed software system consists of two distinct components (see graphic below). First, it records data of a tracked US-device and reconstructs volume data in real-time. Simultaneously, position and orientation data of a tracked instrument are acquired. Both the volumes and the spatial information about the tracked instrument are forwarded to the 3D simulation and navigation software Slicer3D.
