Gable CAD mouse running on UNIX. It was possible to create detailed 3D models and then generate 2D drawings or rendered visualisations from the data. The assets of the company were acquired by Auxer in 1997 and aimed to complete the conversion of Gable CAD to Windows NT but this does not appear to have ever been released. Gable CAD Gable CAD, or Gable 4D Series, was a British architectural computer-aided design package initially developed in the early 1980s. Gable CAD was developed at the University of Sheffield in the mid-1980s under the leadership of Professor Bryan Lawson. It was spun out
Computer-assisted surgery fragments in fractures, allowing a good fixation by osteosynthesis. Early CAOS systems include the HipNav, OrthoPilot, and Praxim. With the advent of computer-assisted surgery, great progresses have been made in general surgery towards minimal invasive approaches. Laparoscopy in abdominal and gynecologic surgery is one of the beneficiaries, allowing surgical robots to perform routine operations, like colecystectomies, or even hysterectomies. In cardiac surgery, shared control systems can perform mitral valve replacement or ventricular pacing by small thoracotomies. In urology, surgical robots contributed in laparoscopic approaches for pyeloplasty or nephrectomy or prostatic interventions. Applications include atrial fibrillation and cardiac resynchronization therapy. Pre-operative
