Positive margins in head and neck oncologic surgery require mapping specimen-side pathology findings to the patient resection bed. This is challenging because pathologists identify the positive margin on slices of the resected, deformed specimen, while surgeons must relocate the corresponding site on the resection bed using only verbal descriptions and no visual guidance.
arXiv:2607. 17810v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate 3D--2D liver registration, which aligns preoperative 3D models to partial, view-dependent intraoperative surface observations, is critical for AR-guided laparoscopic surgery but remains challenging due to severe occlusion, limited visibility, and the lack of 3D ground-truth supervision.
arXiv:2608. 07564v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In digital dentistry and oral surgery, the registration of jawbone CT and intraoral scanner (IOS) data is essential for integrating internal bone structure with high-resolution dental surface geometry.

arXiv:2607. 11949v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a clinically deployed end-to-end auto-contouring system for cervical cancer radiotherapy planning, anchored by the Boundary-Aware Transformer with Region-Aware Mamba (BAT-RM), a hybrid architecture that integrates Sobel-gated boundary attention, a linear-time, multi-directional Mamba module for long-range context, and a boundary-skeleton-guided fusion gate.
arXiv:2608. 00187v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Correspondence-based statistical shape modeling (SSM) is vital for population-level morphometric analysis, but conventional pipelines assume clean, fully registered surfaces.
Multi-view reasoning in coronary X-ray angiography is inherently a cross-projection geometric problem, yet automated report generation in this setting remains largely unexplored. The 3D vascular topology leads to projection-dependent branch overlap and foreshortening, rendering single-view modeling fundamentally incomplete and unstable for lesion localization and stenosis grading.
arXiv:2607. 10551v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate geometric calibration is essential for fluoroscopy-guided spinal imaging, digitally reconstructed radiograph (DRR) generation, and 2D--3D vertebral registration.
Accurate execution of preoperative plans in corrective femoral osteotomies remains challenging. Current techniques are limited by variable accuracy, invasiveness, and radiation exposure, with free-hand methods and patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) often requiring >30 and >6 fluoroscopic images, respectively.
arXiv:2608. 17255v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: X-ray imaging can be approximately modeled as the projection of an underlying volumetric attenuation field, with each measurement recording the accumulated attenuation along a corresponding ray path.
arXiv:2608. 07606v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite advances in 3D ultrasound, most percutaneous cardiac interventions still rely on 2D visualization, limiting depth perception and spatial understanding.
