Purpose:
Image-based tracking for motion compensation is an important topic in image-guided interventions, as it enables physicians to operate in a less complex space. In this paper, we propose an automatic motion compensation scheme to boost image guidence power in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Methods:
The proposed tracking algorithm automatically discovers reliable regions that correlate strongly with the target. These discovered regions can assist to estimate target motion under severe occlusion, even if target tracker fails.
Results:
We evaluate the proposed method for pigtail tracking during TAVI. We obtain significant improvement (12 %) over the baseline in a clinical dataset. Calcification regions are automatically discovered during tracking, which would aid TAVI processes.
Conclusion:
In this work, we open a new paradigm to provide dynamic real-time guidance for TAVI without user interventions, specially in case of severe occlusion where conventional tracking methods are challenged.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

However, to express the relative position of point B relative to point A, an additional frame of reference, denoted as x'y', is necessary. This additional frame not only translates but also rotates relative to the fixed frame, making it...
Absolute Motion Analysis- General Plane Motion
As the drone's propellers rotate, an upward force is generated that counteracts the force of gravity, enabling the drone to lift off from the ground. This initial movement of the drone is along a straight path, representing a form of translational motion. In this phase, every point on the...
