PURPOSE: This work presents the implementation of an RGB-D camera as a surrogate signal for liver respiratory-induced motion estimation. This study aims to validate the feasibility of RGB-D cameras as a surrogate in a human subject experiment and to ...
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a crucial life-saving technique commonly administered to individuals experiencing cardiac arrest. Among the important aspects of CPR is ensuring the correct airway position of the patient, which is typically mon...
BACKGROUND: Stereotactic body radiotherapy of thoracic and abdominal tumors has to account for respiratory intrafractional tumor motion. Commonly, an external breathing signal is continuously acquired that serves as a surrogate of the tumor motion an...
PURPOSE: Treatment of patients undergoing prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation includes repeated spontaneous breathing trials (SBTs) without respiratory support, whose duration must be balanced critically to prevent over- and underload of re...
