Guest Lectures
Stefan Weber, Ph.D.
Co-Director of the ARTORG
Center for Computer Assisted Surgery at the University of Bern and ARTORG
Professor for Implantation Technology“Image Guided Liver Surgery: Clinical Applications and Technological Trends"
Surgical interventions on the liver require an in-depth three-dimensional understanding of theorgan¹s internal vascular anatomy in order to preserve adequate postoperative organ function.
Specifically, vascular in-and outflow needs to be balanced and bile collection function has to bepreserved. Due to these challenges liver resections, ablations, and transplantations have become
possible relatively late in surgical history and remain challenging procedures even nowadays. To
date, computer based planning and instrument guidance procedures are taking liver surgery to its
limits with great improvements in accuracy and outcome. In the talk, the current state of computer
support in liver surgery as well as an overview of ongoing technological research in the field isgiven.

Yoshinobu Sato, Ph.D.
Associate Professor, Image Analysis Group, Department of Radiology
Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka University“Therapeutic/diagnostic decision support from 3D medical data based on computationalanatomy”
In this talk, we describe therapeutic/diagnostic decision support systems using 3D medical data.
The system firstly reconstructs patient anatomy from 3D data, and then provides
therapeutic/diagnostic decision support based on physical simulations and statistical optimizations
on the reconstructed patient anatomy. The system fully utilizes computational anatomy models
representing inter-patient anatomical variability specific to diseases and therapy, which are derived
from the training datasets consisting of segmented datasets, diagnostic proof datasets, and pasttherapeutic plans. We demonstrate a couple of fully automated decision support systems for theabdominal and musculoskeletal diagnosis and therapy.

Takehide Asano, M.D., Ph.D.
Supervisor for National Hospital Chiba East, Chiba
Former Professor of Surgery, School of Medicine Teikyo University, Tokyo“Thermal ablation as a minimally invasive therapy for digestive diseases,--- utility and problems of the RFA and HIFU ---”
Hepato-biliary pancreatic (HBP) surgery has been usually done by big surgeons with big abdominal
incisions. The less invasive method, laparoscopic surgery, has been introduced even in HBP
surgery and is coming to the main stream. I would like to talk about endoscopic surgery in HBP andthe introduction of thermal ablation as a more minimum method.
