Visualization in Robotic Surgery

Visualization can be defined as “a technique for creating images, diagrams, or animations to communicate a message” [1]. Visualization in surgical robotics involves displaying images of patient anatomy to the surgeon. Such images can be provided by optical or tomographic imaging techniques.
