[12 years of Computer-Aided Surgery around the Head : Developments in surgical planning and simulation from a Bern perspective]. / 12 Jahre Computer-Aided Surgery around the Head : Entwicklungen in der chirurgischen Planung und Simulation aus Berner Perspektive.

ABSTRACT

Over the past years, the multidisciplinary character of the international Computer-Aided Surgery around the Head (CAS-H) symposium has advanced many medical technologies, which were often adopted by industry. In Bern, the synergetic effects of the CAS-H symposium have enabled many experiences and developments in the area of computer-aided surgery. Planning and simulation methods in the areas of craniomaxillofacial surgery and otorhinolaryngology were developed and tested in clinical settings. In the future, further CAS-H symposia should follow, in order to promote the possibilities and applications of computer-assisted surgery around the head.
