Towards a low-cost monitor-based augmented reality training platform for at-home ultrasound skill development (2022)
Journal Article
Shao, M. Y., Vagg, T., Seibold, M., & Doughty, M. (2022). Towards a low-cost monitor-based augmented reality training platform for at-home ultrasound skill development. Journal of Imaging, 8(11), 305. https://doi.org/10.3390/jimaging8110305

Ultrasound education traditionally involves theoretical and practical training on patients or on simulators; however, difficulty accessing training equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for home-based training systems. Due t... Read More about Towards a low-cost monitor-based augmented reality training platform for at-home ultrasound skill development.

Real-time style transfer for videos to enhance the realism of simulation of laparoscopic surgeries (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Shao, M., Clark, J., Huson, D., & Hardeberg, J. (2022). Real-time style transfer for videos to enhance the realism of simulation of laparoscopic surgeries. In 2022 10th European Workshop on Visual Information Processing (EUVIP). https://doi.org/10.1109/EUVIP53989.2022.9922706

Surgical simulation has repeatedly proven its potential, but is limited by the lack of realism to the surgical experience. For laparoscopic surgery simulation, an image processing method known as style transfer can improve the realism by transferring...

Simulation of laparoscopic ultrasound imaging and suturing of the bile duct using silicone (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Shao, M., Huson, D., & Clark, J. (2022). Simulation of laparoscopic ultrasound imaging and suturing of the bile duct using silicone. In Medical Imaging 2022: Image-Guided Procedures, Robotic Interventions, and Modeling. https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2611340

The laparoscopic treatment of gallstone is a complex procedure requiring multiple skills, notably laparoscopic ultrasounds imaging and laparoscopic suturing. This procedure has many benefits comparing to open surgery, but still fail to be generalised...

Physical patient simulators for surgical training: a review (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Shao, M., Parraman, C., & Huson, D. (2021). Physical patient simulators for surgical training: a review. In London Imaging Meeting (124-128). https://doi.org/10.2352/issn.2694-118X.2020.LIM-05

The purpose of this article is to review the fabrication process of physical patient simulators for surgical training and describes current research areas. Medical image acquisition and analysis are tools to reproduce human anatomy in 3D models. Data... Read More about Physical patient simulators for surgical training: a review.
