Abstract

An important step toward our main goal of a completely computer-based maxillofacial surgical planning system is the availability of tools for the surgeon to define bone segments from skull and jaw bones. We have developed an easy-to-handle user interface that employs visual and force-feedback devices to define subvolumes of a patient’s volume dataset. This interface is a main component of our maxillofacial surgical planning tool MeVisTo-Jaw [1]. The defined subvolumes together with their spatial arrangements lead to an operation plan.
