Master thesis in computer assisted navigated surgery - September/October 2025, 6 months

Work Flexibility: Hybrid

Our team is specialized in the development of clinical navigation systems for minimally invasive ENT surgery. Clinical navigation systems (Stryker Scopis System) are used to guide surgeons by displaying the position of medical instruments on three-dimensional CT or MRI data of the patient, and ultimately to precisely reach anatomical targets. The team uses the latest technologies such as computer vision, augmented reality and AI for computer-assisted surgery.  

  

Our offer to you  

• We are offering a Master Thesis in area of Interactive Guidance for Navigated ENT Surgery . 

• You will learn and apply the latest technologies in machine vision, computer graphics, human-computer interaction and interactive systems. 

• You will have the opportunity to develop prototypes for our Surgical Navigation System and support our team with your proof-of-concept application.  

• You will implement your solution using C++ or Python and Matlab and evaluate it in an ecosystem consisting of state-of-the-art navigation and imaging systems. 

• You will be an active member of our international and interdisciplinary research and development team.  

That makes you stand out
