Abstract
Telepresence is surgery is a demanding technological challenge for communication tools, hard- and software. Interventional Video Tomography (IVT) [1] allows remote-guided intraoperative navigation, guidance, orientation. Provided that the partners have their copy of the medical images and a sufficient bandwidth video transmission line the IVT data set allows to share stereotactic information, like access paths or structures to avoid, by exchanging the positional and orientational information of the used sensors on the “soundtrack” of the transmitted video. Both the remote and the local partner share a file with the stereotactic information of tracked objects and may modify its contents so that an interactive, optimized remote planning of the surgery becomes possible.
