Abstract
PURPOSE: Augmented reality guidance in laparoscopic liver resection requires the registration of a preoperative 3D model to the intraoperative 2D image. However, 3D-2D liver registration poses challenges owing to the liver's flexibility, particularly in the limited visibility conditions of laparoscopy. Although promising, the current registration methods are computationally expensive and often necessitate manual initialisation.
