Computer Integrated Surgery focuses on computer-based techniques, systems, and applications exploiting quantitative information from medical images and sensors to assist clinicians in all phases of treatment, from diagnosis to preoperative planning, execution, and follow-up. It emphasizes the relationship between problem definition, computer-based technology, and clinical application.
Some universities are doing research in this area including Johns Hopkins University, MIT and Carnegie Mellon University.
