Title
Pneumoperitoneum technique simulation in laparoscopic surgery on lamb liver samples and 3D reconstruction.
Abstract
In this paper, a procedure to experimentally simulate the behavior of the liver when the pneumoperitoneum technique is applied in laparoscopic surgery is presented, as well as methodology to make the comparison of each sample before and after insufflating the gas. This comparison is carried out using the 3D reconstruction of the volume from the CT images when either pneumoperitoneum is applied and when it is not. This methodology has showed that there are perceptible changes of volume when the pneumoperitoneum is applied.
