Learning feature descriptors for pre- and intra-operative point cloud matching for laparoscopic liver registration

Purpose In laparoscopic liver surgery, preoperative information can be overlaid onto the intra-operative scene by registering a 3D preoperative model to the intra-operative partial surface reconstructed from the laparoscopic video. To assist with this task, we explore the use of learning-based featu...
