  1. 1. Spatialized Sonification for the Learning of Surgical Navigation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Alexander Danielsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Spatial Audio; Sonification; Surgical Simulations; Minimally invasive Surgery; Psychoacoustics; Spatial Ljud; Sonifikation; Kirurgiska Simulationer; Minimalinvasiv kirurgi; Psykoakustik;

    Abstract : Historically, the education of surgical navigation in minimally invasive neurosurgery has been constrained by several factors. Medical students have been required to physically be in the operating room to observe a teacher perform the different procedures. This restricts their opportunities to gain valuable hands-on experience in their field. READ MORE

  3. 2. Object shape and depth perception in VR

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : David Persson; Kristi Francis; [2023]
    Keywords : virtual reality; depth perception; minimally invasive neurosurgery;

    Abstract : Virtual reality (VR) for surgical training shows promise in preparing surgeons for complex procedures. However, achieving a high level of realism in VR is essential for the skills acquired to translate effectively into real-world applications. READ MORE

  4. 3. Comparative Analysis of Spatiotemporal Playback Manipulation : Evaluating Desktop Environments versus Immersive Head-Mounted Virtual Reality Environments

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Andreas Wrife; [2023]
    Keywords : virtual reality; surgical simulations; external ventricular drainage; motion capture; interaction controls; virtuell verklighet; kirurgiska simuleringar; extern ventrikeldränage; motion capture; interaktionskontroller;

    Abstract : Virtual Reality (VR) is a creative tool that enables immersive learning, planning and training of surgical operations. Extensive research has been conducted in multiple surgical specialities where VR has been utilized, such as spinal neurosurgery. However, cranial neurosurgery remains relatively unexplored in this regard. READ MORE

    Author : Saga Bergqvist; [2020]
    Keywords : Raman spectroscopy; brain tumor; diagnosis;

    Abstract : Brain tumors or brain cancer is a disease than affects people of all ages. The median age of a person living with a brain tumor is 60 years, it is however a disease that affects children and young adults in high grade. READ MORE

  6. 5. Incidence of reoperation for ventriculo-peritoneal shunt in adult patients in relation to challenges of the perioperative nurse

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Author : Irina Halling; [2017]
    Keywords : perioperative nursing; ventriculo-peritoneal shunt; reoperation; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background: Ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunt is a catheter which circulate flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the lateral ventricle to the abdomen and it is the most commonly used shunt in modern neurosurgery. Complications of VP shunts are very common and often require emergency services. READ MORE
