| Abstract | Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is a recent surgical technique where the surgeon does not interact directly with the patient's organs. In contrast to open surgery, the surgeon manipulates the organs through instruments inserted in the patient's abdominal cavity while observing the organ from a display showing the video stream captured by an endoscopic camera. While the benefits of MIS for patients are clearly claimed, performing these operations remains very challenging for the surgeons, due to the loss of depth perception caused by this indirect manipulation. To tackle this limitation, the research community suggests to use augmented reality (AR) during the procedure [Haouchine et al. 2013]. The objective towards the use of AR during surgery is to be able to overlay the 3D model of the organ (that can be obtained from a pre-operative scan of the patient) onto the video stream. Surgical AR made considerable advances and reached a certain maturity in the estimation of tumors and vessels localisation. Howerver, very few studies have investigated depth perception and visualization of internal structures [Lerotic et al. 2007], which is considered by surgeons as a very sensitive issue. This study suggests a method to compensate the loss of depth perception while enhancing organ vessels and tumors to surgeons. This method relies on a combination of contour rendering technique and adaptive alpha blending to effectively perceive the vessels and tumors depth. In addition, this technique is designed to achieve real-time to satisfy the requirements of clinical routines, and has been tested on real human surgery. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
