Registration of preoperative temporal bone CT-scan to otoendoscopic video for augmented-reality based on convolutional neural networks

ConclusionsA fully automatic 2D registration method based on a convolutional neural network and applied to ear surgery was developed. The method did not rely on any external fiducial markers nor human intervention for landmark recognition. The method was fast and its precision was compatible with ear surgery.
