[201] Citation: Abstract
Surgical simulators are excellent training tools for minimally invasive procedures but are currently lacking in realistic tissue rendering and tissue respon
ses to manipulation. Accurate color representation of tissues may add realism to simulators and provide medically relevant information. The goal of this study
was to determine feasible methods for measuring color of in vivo tissue, specifically liver, in a standardized color space. Several compressions were applied t
o in vivo porcine liver. Three methods were then used to determine the CIELab and/or sRGB colors of normal and damaged liver. Results suggest that there are si
gnificant differences between normal and damaged liver color.
