Abstract
In some cases, surgeons need to navigate through th e computer system for reconfirmation patients’ deta ils and unfortunately surgeons unable to manage both co mputer system and operation at the same time. In th is paper we propose a solution for this problem especi ally designed for heart surgeon, by introducing voi ce activation system with 3D visualization of Angiogra phic images, 2D visualization of Echocardiography processed video and selected patient’s details. In this study, the processing, approximation of the 3D angiography and the visualization of the 2D echocar diography video with voice recognition control are the most challenging work. The work involve with predicting 3D coronary three from 2D angiography image and also image enhancement which utilize the median filtering, morphological opening and contrast improvement and heart boundaries detection. With 3D reconstruction of 2D angiography images, the syste m was able to display 3D coronary tree, with voice ac tivation. The system was able to rotate, zoom in an d out the 3D image, the 2D echocardiography video and display patient’s information that needed by the surge on while doing heart surgery. Development of this syst em is useful for surgeons, where they can navigate the system using voice commands instead of keyboard and mouse. Medical practitioners also can facilitate more the angiogram and echocardiograph images. With this system, it can help and ease the work of surgeons in analyzing and processing the medical images especially in-vivo procedure.

During surgery, surgeons sometimes need to navigate through the computer system for re-confirmation patients’ details
In this paper we propose a solution for this problem especially designed for heart surgeon, by introducing voice activation system with 3D visualization of Angiographic images, 2D visualization of Echocardiography processed video and selected patient’s details
As mentioned in Hasan et al (2009) and Hussein et al (2011), results for these parts has been evaluated by medical specialist and they agree the both method had achieved good performance and succeeds in presenting legible illustration for various angiography and echocardiography images
Summary
Surgeons sometimes need to navigate through the computer system for re-confirmation patients’ details. Constraints happened on the navigation due to surgeons unable to manage both computer system and operation at the same time. We present here the implementation of a robust voice recognition algorithm for voice activated control of assistive visualization devices, which include Coronary Artery Tree Extraction, echocardiograph contour extraction and text data visualization specially design for heart surgeons. Our system was developed due to this constraint which is enabling the surgeons especially cardiothoracic surgeon to control the system through voice commands. Our proposed system is specially designed to store patients, details including their medical images in the database so that surgeons can obtain the medical images of patients in a short period through voice commands.
