Videoendoscopic distortion correction and its application to virtual guidance of endoscopy.

Modern video based endoscopes offer physicians a wide-angle field of view (FOV) for minimally invasive procedures, Unfortunately, inherent barrel distortion prevents accurate perception of range. This makes measurement and distance judgment difficult and causes difficulties in emerging applications,...
